We are joining the fun at Fernhill Farm on the Spring Equinox. Come and meet the sheep with their lustrous wool and crazy hairstyles, watch blade shearing demonstrations by champion Andy and a international crew (limbering up for a shearing tournament on Sunday 22nd) and see how the expert wool packers check and roll the fleeces. Jen is a leading light in championing wool as a sustainable and natural material for clothing and brings together spinners, knitters, weavers and natural dyers at a Fibre Experience to showcase their skills . It’s a real family day with food, talks, demonstrations and stalls. Come and find us and try some wine in the bar area in the U-shaped barn.

This is a highlight of the farming year when you can visit an atmospheric sheep farm on ancient land high on the Mendip Hills.
