Events will be happening on each farm!

This year Stuffed Handcrafted Perogies will be onsite offering lunch from 12-6.  Enjoy their handmade perogies- or try out the Special Feature- Dill Pickle Ice cream!  West Avenue will be serving 6 ciders for you to choose from- highly recommended is  ‘The Pollinator’- an homage to the importance of pollination on our farm.  It’s a perfectly refreshing blend of strawberries, apples, pears and honey.

LICKETY SPIT FIBRE FARM

Guests to our farm will get the opportunity to have guided tours to meet the sheep and alpacas, as well as to see swans, geese, ducks, and a horse. There will be demonstrations of fibre preparation and dyeing, spinning, weaving, and needle felting. There will be plenty of yarn dyeing taking place  - September is an amazing time for harvesting plants to use for dyeing.  We will also be working with our sheep shearer to hold some shearing demonstrations!

Our farm store will be open with a selection of wool and alpaca-related goods such as yarn, roving, socks, soaps, and finished goods, as well as the garlic that we grow.
