Welcome to our fleece page. Here is an older scan ofPhillip with his blue ribbon Corriedale fleece at the National Western Stock Show in Denver. Our most select fleeces are sold via the internet. Here are some photos: This is our shearer, Kevin Hickman. Kevin shears internationally, but always saves time to do our flock. We skirt very closely. In fact, it is not unusual for us to discard at least half of a fleece. We remove bellies, topknots, soiled areas on legs, and any areas with excessive vegetable material. We prefer to ship via Parcel Post. Our small local post office has been very cooperative in helping us to ship as efficiently as possible. We ship within 24 hours from the time that payment arrives. We are extremely particular about the fleeces we sell on the internet. In fact, this year, we discarded over half of our fleeces as not being suitable for what we feel our customers want. Here is Phillip receiving his FFA Chapter's Proficiency Award in Entrepreneurship for his fleece marketing.   Click here to send us an e-mail.
