AgriTourism Events at Foxfire Holler

Summer 2011

This summer we will be hosting several events ... Y'all are welcome to come out and visit with the animals (and us !) and spend the day having fun on the farm... Dates will be announced closer to the actual event, because some things are just impossible to plan ahead ! I will be announcing events on Facebook ( Spin A Yarn is our user name, add us ! ) Ravelry, and the email newsletter.. you can subscribe to the newsletter by clicking on the newsletter link to the left of this page.

  • Shearing Day ... This is my favorite day on the farm! A big day for any sheep farmer, it is the harvesting of the wool crop for the year! We also vaccinate, deworm and trim hooves if needed ... The event is a potluck, Mama usually fixes a couple big Shepherd's pies, everyone brings a bite of something, and we all dig in.. You are welcome to help or just hang out and watch ! Lynn Worth and Eddie Bakeburg have volunteered to provide music. Good party !  
  •  
  • High Country Farm Tour August ... A whole weekend of visiting awesome farms ! We will have Fiber Demonstrations here, classes available if you call ahead... you can tour our permaculture gardens, pet some sheep, bunnies, chickens and pigs .. Maybe even take one or 2 home with you! We are totally kid friendly here, and I can guarantee they will have a ball .  
  •  
  • Old Time Corn Shuckin' ... We will be having an evening of shucking corn, listenin to music and sittin by the fire : ) I won't know a date til the corn gets ready ... Probably around the end of October .  
  •  
  • Chicken Harvest day ... If you want to learn how to process your own birds for resale, eatin, or you just want to see where your food comes from... You're welcome to come out and help !
