Farmer Tam, with the help of her children and community, have been cultivating a home with a heart for fiber animals of all species and breeds in a small New England town since 2001. Their focus on breed specific fiber, by beloved flocks, keeps Tamara and helpers busy year round. The farm sells wool products such as yarns, felt, roving, and comforters and farm made soaps, home baked pies, fresh eggs and chicks, geese and lambs through farm markets, sheep + wool festivals and their online shop. Tamara teaches Natural Dyeing, Baking, Soap Making and Farming/Homesteading Workshops episodically. The farm hosts visits by appointment and workshops for learning homestead and fiber arts.
