At Church Farm, we believe that it is important to preserve and promote traditional crafts such as spinning and weaving, so as long as the weather proves fine on Open Farm Sunday, we will be shearing our sheep and providing a demonstration on how to spin using Church Farm fleece.
*SPINNING PROMOTION*
Remember you can also sign up to one of our Spin in a Day courses. For June and July only – while the sheep are being shorn – we will only be charging £35 for a day of tuition (including tea/coffee) and £5 for materials. Give us a ring to find out more. Susan Dye and Brian Bond from the Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers also visited the farm last weekend to run a workshop on peg-loom weaving. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience for everyone involved. Look out for more peg-loom weaving workshops in the near future.
