Our Farm
We are a family farm raising sheep for fibre and meat. We also operate a wool pellet mill, working with local shepherds to give wool a second purpose by transforming it into a premium soil amendment that nourishes gardens and returns nutrients to the land.
We began sheep farming in the summer of 2022 with a small flock of Icelandic sheep. In time, we added several Bluefaced Leicester ewes, chosen for their fine, lustrous fleece, dependable mothering, and gentle character. Each breed has its strengths, but the BFL × Icelandic lambs born the following spring stood out. They grew well, carrying a slightly longer frame than the pure Icelandics while producing soft, silky fleeces. We retained several of these ewe lambs to help shape the future of our flock.
After shearing, we found that not all of the wool was suitable for spinning or other fibre work. Rather than discard it, we began using the coarser fleeces in the garden. We noticed healthier soil and stronger plant growth, which led us to learn more about wool’s remarkable ability to improve soil health. The more we discovered, the more convinced we became that this overlooked resource deserved a second purpose. That research eventually led us to build our own wool pellet mill.
Today, we source raw wool from local farms and transform it into a premium, natural soil amendment. Our aim is simple: to support shepherds across British Columbia by giving waste wool new value, while continuing to raise nutrient-dense, grass-fed lamb and quality fleece for fibre enthusiasts.
Everything we do is rooted in the belief that what comes from the land should, whenever possible, find its way back to it.
Why wool pellet processing?
There are roughly 300 sheep farms in the Fraser Valley, producing thousands of kilograms of wool each year. While the finest fleeces are sought after by fibre artists and mills, much of the coarser wool has little commercial value and is often discarded, buried, or burned.
After seeing the benefits of using our own lower-grade fleeces in the garden, we realized this overlooked resource had far greater potential. We began researching wool as a soil amendment and, when the opportunity arose to purchase a wool pellet mill, we knew it was the next step.
Today, we transform raw wool from local farms into premium wool pellets that help improve soil health, conserve water, and return valuable nutrients to the earth.By giving waste wool a second purpose, we provide gardeners and the horticulture industry with a natural, sustainable soil amendment while creating a practical market for wool that might otherwise go to waste.
We believe every fleece has value. Even when it can’t become yarn, it can still nourish the land from which it came.Supporting Local Wool
Our wool is sourced entirely within British Columbia, reducing the carbon footprint associated with transportation while supporting local fibre producers. We purchase wool at a fair value and transform it into a natural, renewable soil amendment that returns nutrients to the land.
This process gives farmers a practical way to create value from more of their wool clip, including fibres that may not be suitable for textile production. By keeping this resource within our region, we help reduce waste, strengthen local agriculture, and build a more circular relationship between sheep, soil, and the communities that care for them.
