Spin with Ewe at Nash Lake Farm!
Grab your drop spindle or spinning wheel and come spend a Saturday morning spinning wool with us!
What is Spin With Ewe? It is a specially-curated event that includes a “roving flight” of various rovings milled by Theresa Bentz and Alejandra Sanchez at the Bentz Farm Mill. You will “taste” your flight of roving during the event and discuss the various sheep breeds with your fellow spinners and the shepherds.
The theme of this event for Feburary is Lambs & Love. We will do a breed study featuring two different sheep breeds, but will take a deeper dive by tasting sheep-specific roving from a ram, a ewe, and a lamb. Learn about the characteristics that differentiate these fleeces and how the role of the sheep impacts their wool growth. As a bonus our flight will be themed around the colors of love, imagine browns, corals, pinks, and reds.
We hope to see you there!
