Spring has Sprung, and it’s time to shear the sheep! On Saturday, March 23, Island Farm will host its annual sheep shearing day, from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. During this event, Island Farm’s resident sheep will be hand-shorn, just as they would have been in the mid-19th century on Roanoke Island. Shearing will take place in front of visitors, so they can witness the process up-close. Other activities include butter making, blacksmithing, hearth cooking, wagon rides, wool bracelet crafts, and washing, drying, spinning, carding, and weaving wool into useful items! Admission is $10, and children 3 and under are admitted for free.
