A close-up of the gorgeous locks.

Wensleydale sheep are a large, longwool breed that are rare in the United States.  They have beautiful, lustrous wool with a long staple which is curly and purled. 

We are so happy with our small flock.  Not only are they great fiber producers but they have lovely personalities.

Adopt a Sheep- Get Fiber or Soaps Now!
$150 level
This adoption fee covers all the costs to provide a safe, comfortable home for your sheep for one year.  This includes hay, straw, grain, shearing and any medical supplies/assistance needed.  You can feel good knowing that you are supporting a small farm in which your sheep can live out the rest of his/her life.  Unlike on most farms, these sheep will never go to slaughter.  They have a forever home on Plum Blossom Farm.
The benefit of this adoption program is you do not have to wait until shearing time to receive your gifts.  Once you pay your adoption fee I will immediately send your gifts to you.  You can enjoy your fiber throughout the year and know you are supporting your sheep at the same time.
