If you are interested in going / driving/ carpooling with someone maybe drop your name on this post & when you plan to go or when you’d like to join up with another member or two -
There’s a link to the festival guide on the webpage which will give you an idea of the events & vendors ( fiber, materials & equipment sellers)
Best way I can describe this is to think of a state or county fair, but ALL about WOOL - sheep, llamas & Angora rabbits, sheep dog competitions & live sheepherding & baby lambs to pet! spinning, carding, weaving, dying yarn, knotting & crochet.
There are classes offered, but those typically require pre-registration & multiple-day attendance. For future trips, if interested - they do have a 300 site campground.
Over 100 vendors of fiber supplies & tools - see the full downloadable festivesl guide
