Fall Shearing Open Barn

Welcome to the Fall Shearing Open Barn event at Euchre Creek Farm! Join us for a fun afternoon of watching our flock get their fluffy locks shorn. You'll have the chance to see a skilled shearer in action, view and handle fresh Border Leicester fleeces, and learn all about small scale wool production. Stay for lunch and learn to knit with wool yarn.

Info: We shear our Border Leicester sheep twice a year to produce an amazing crop of wool. Our flock is dual purpose and produces both lamb and wool -- these animals both feed and clothe us! Anna will be demonstrating the New Zealand shearing pattern that requires strength and skill to remove wool with minimal discomfort for both animal and shearer.

Info: Menu TBD. Cole and Rowan Tilley are fantastic people, creative chefs, and hard working owners of Raised by Wolves food truck on Hwy 101 in Newport. If you haven't checked them out, you're crazy. Follow them on Facebook and Insta.

Info: Randi and her partner, Mark, run a gem of a shop in Waldport called Tidewater Creations featuring Randi's hand dyed wool, Mark's custom woodworking projects, and so much more. Randi teaches all kinds of crafting classes, as well. Visit www.twistedtidewater.com.
