Watch a local shearer expertly work with our rare breed Manx Loaghtans, Whitefaced Woodlands, Lincoln Longwools and Norfolk Horns. 

Head to the Stock Yard at Home Farm and join us this June for a unique family event showcasing the traditional skill of sheep-shearing!

Get up close to feel freshly clipped fleeces and explore a display of beautiful products made from these superior wools. This interactive and educational event is perfect for all ages; We welcome people to ask questions as we work in order to understand the shearing process and discover the importance of rare breed conservation.

A fun experience for the whole family!
