On Saturday, April 6, from 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m., Warren Wilson College’s four wool sheep (Betty, Janice, Eva and Angelina) will be sheared outside of the Farm School General Store, 157 South Lane, on the college campus. If you’ve never seen this done, it’s a sight to behold! The College’s Fiber Arts Crew will be on hand to demonstrate how to skirt and spin the wool, as well as how they use wool products on campus.
While you’re there, be sure to stop in to the Farm School General Store, where you’ll find weekly discounts and recipes for grass fed beef, grass fed lamb, and pastured pork (all raised on the Warren Wilson College Farm), along with unique products developed by student makers and entrepreneurs. The General Store is open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
