We’ve decided to keep the original date as the forecast has been improving up until decision time (noon Sat. Oct. 28th).

Need a fiber fix? Longing to see sheep? You’re in luck because we’re holding a Fleece & Yarn Sale on Sunday, October 29, 2023, from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m.

The Sale will feature fleece, yarn, spinning fiber, honey, and other farm products from local fiber producers and artisans.

Are you a spinner? Pack your wheels and spindles and join us for a Spin-In, hosted by the South Jersey Guild of Spinners & Handweavers!

NJ Fibershed blankets will be available for purchase.  Back by popular demand,Windswept Acres Farm will provide a Sheep Selfie station again.
