Planning our next Farm Open Day event where your all welcome to join us at Fernhill Farm to watch the sheep being shorn in our lively shearing shed.

World Class Blade shearers will be taking part in this bi-annual tournament to compete with plenty of the best this industry has to offer and help raise the profile of the Benefits of Blade Shearing here in the UK.

Buy fleece fresh off the boards in the shearing shed, as well as finished products made from our wool in our pop-up Sheep Shop - beautiful scarves, blankets, yarn, clothing and more in a range of natural and dyed colours. 

Throughout the day wool spinning, peg loom weaving and needle felt workshops will be available from the Fernhill Fibre team, and we welcome all those who use natural resources to promote and create rural activities.

The One-Love-Caribbean-Shack will be here serving up delicious tasty meals, Worleys Cider will bring a bar stocked with award winning ciders, and The Coffee.Box will park up and serve amazing cakes alongside their array of hot beverages.

We shall kept in musical flow throughout the day with the Caribbean Dj, and the infamous Stompin’ Dave will return for a fast and furious flinging around session on the boards when the shearers take their lunch !

Free entry to all – it's a perfect family day out and please do get in contact if you wish to get involved wool@fernhill-farm.co.uk All proceeds are donated as prize money for talented shearers
