Thanks Claire and Iris (sweet sheep)!!  We have soooo much fun with your yarns!

Go Green!!  Our yarns are locally produced.  That means TENS OF THOUSANDS OF GALLONS OF FUEL were NOT spent to bring you this yarn.  In fact, when you buy our yarn, you'll even know the name of the sheep who produced it! ( Hands down customer favorite!! )

Did you know that much of the yarns available in the shops were shipped here on HUGE, POLLUTING ships across now fragile oceans?  Is that REALLY necessarry?????  Did you know that some of those huge companies buy the wool on one continent, then ship it to another continent for processing, often using chemical scours to "clean" the fibers, then ship the yarn to stores around the world.  That's too much shipping!  Did you know that in some "shipping lanes", there are now dead zones, where the waters and sediment are so heavily polluted and disturbed from ships that aquatic life can no longer make a life there??  Now I love a nice grapefruit in winter, but do we REALLY need to be trashing our oceans for knitting, especially when nicer yarns can be produced right here, just outside our cities?  We can wisen up and reduce senseless practices with one simple act...buying local!  Wheely Wooly Farm does not contribute to the polluting of oceans through shipping just to give you knitting pleasure.  We know so many of you feel a strong need to reduce our human " footprint" on this earth.   We feel the same way, which is one of the reasons we raise our flock of sheep and work so hard to bring you our fine knitting and weaving yarn!

 Our yarns are also SUSTAINABLE!  Our sheep improve the land's fertility.  They knock out unwanted weeds and help eradicate invasive species.  They aerate the soil with perfect tips on cute little hooves.  They enrich the environment for wildlife, one example being allowing ground nesting species of birds to flourish such as meadowlarks.  When you purchase Wheely Wooly Farm yarns, you are making a very smart choice, while significantly discouraging senseless polluting and senseless destruction of the environment.  Your purchase of our yarns promotes sound ecological practices, which in turn promotes adequate habitat for song birds and healthy plant diversity. 

You can reduce your knitting " hoofprint" right here!  When you knit with Wheely Wooly Farm yarns, you are promoting a healthier environment AND a stronger economy.

Happy Green Knitting everyone!
