Just a “few” more knots to tie on this queen wool comforter. Each comforter is crafted with care.

This is a Christmas gift in the works with a few more before the big day.

Each comforter is 100% cotton enclosing North Country Cheviot wool that has been processed to batts in my Belfast Mini Mill. Harmeny Woolen Mill was started to assist with the comforter production.

Fun fact: it takes 100 drum carder batts to make one queen comforter. It takes 8 in my mini mill.

Drying lofty North Country Cheviot wool by the wood stove in the house does speed up the process.

Comforters await…

This… please read and help if you are able!

Calling all knitters and crocheters! Lapghans needed!

One of the honours our volunteers have is to gift lapghans to patients on the Palliative Care Unit at the Colchester East Hants Health Centre but our inventory is running low.

If you are interested in making lapghans for distribution by Colchester East Hants Hospice Society volunteers, please contact us for details at 902-893-3265 or [email protected].

Lapghans are a modest covering for your lower body when being transported in a wheelchair, and provide warmth when used as a shawl or additional bedding over your feet. They are cozy and homey, made by a caring heart from our community.
For some family members, the lapghan becomes a cherished item.

Requirements:
• Must be a minimum of 3 feet X 4 feet.
• Those who are quite ill or reaching the end of their life tend to have very sensitive skin so lapghans must be made with very soft yarn.

All the colours of sheep’s wool on these Cheviot, Romeldale and Rambouillet ewes.

They are still at pasture but come to the leanto barn at night.

I do love my girls and their wool😍.

Last batch of chickens were processed today. They will be frozen end of day tomorrow so if you would like fresh chicken please send me a note.

Thank you to all my customers for your support this summer/fall ( and previous few years) for chicken. There will be frozen chicken for a while available in whole, half and some parts.

Pumpkins from Red Mountain Farm are truly delicious to sheep…and chickens, horses, goats…. haven’t given any to the ducks yet!

See for yourself…
