NEWLY DYED LOCKS OF MANY COLORS.JPG)
Wild 'n' Woolly farm offers raw, washed, & dyed wool, 'felt' goodies, and more! Our online shop is in the works right now, but we will take orders the old-fashioned way--by phone! See our contact page for our number!
We raise performance selected COOPWORTH SHEEP of New Zealand descent which produce large, lustrous fleeces and mild, succulent tasting lamb.
We also raise Scottish Highland cattle! Scottish Highland cattle are docile, hardy, easy calvers, and excellent foragers.
Our Sheep and Cattle are raised almost wholly on pasture and treated with essential oil therapies. No antibiotics and no unnecessary vaccines are used. A barley mix is fed to the ewes and cows during lambing and calving when there is too little grass to support their needs nutritionally.
We are located in Mathias, West Virginia, an hour northwest of the Shenandoah National Park in Virginia.
