Ever wonder what really goes into preparing a farm for spring?

Join us at Woolly Yak Ranch & Winery for a behind-the-scenes look at real farm life as we roll up our sleeves and get ready for the season ahead.

 

Throughout the week, guests are welcome to stop by and observe as we:
• Clean out the sheep barn
• Brush our yaks
• Shear sheep
• Skirt wool
• Clean and refresh farm structures
• Check and repair fencing
• Tidy up our lavender rows

No admission. No reservations. Just stop by and experience the rhythm of the farm.

 Handmade Wool Dryer Ball Workshop

Saturday, April 18 at 3PM
$15 per person • Reservation Required. Very limited spots.

Create your own wool dryer ball using wool from our very own Babydoll Southdown sheep—known for producing some of the best felting wool available.

Each guest will make one dryer ball to take home.

Babydoll Southdown wool is considered premium for dryer balls because:
• Dense, springy fibers create long-lasting, heavy-duty balls
• High crimp structure absorbs moisture efficiently
• Helps soften laundry, reduce static, and speed drying
• Each dryer ball lasts for over 1,000 loads
• Completely eco-friendly

This is a hands-on farm craft experience using wool raised right here on the ranch.
