Despite the unprecedented cool weather and abundant rain,
spring has sprung at WoodsEdge! Flowers, crias (baby alpaca and llamas) and yak
calves are each welcomed with delight. The herds run and romp through the lush
green pastures. Our grass fed beef are content and although our honey
production is somewhat hampered by the rain, our hives are healthy and the bees
enjoying the increased bee friendly plantings we have done.
Our alpaca and llama fleece harvest was done in late March
and early April this year so we could get the fleece into manufacturing
channels sooner, with some exquisite hand-spinning fleeces pulled aside for our
upcoming annual Summer Stitch, Spin ‘n Sip on June 23. The yak soft down is
still being harvested, but visitors to our Farm Store will be totally
enthralled with the yak fiber, rovings and yarns we already have processed and
ready to sell.
We welcome your visit to our Farm Store filled with the
bounty our 90 acre diversified family farm produces. Please
visit soon! We are open from 10 a.m. till 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.
