The Farmer’s Yarn Festival

Join farmers and craftspeople at The Farmer’s Yarn: An annual wool marketplace celebrating the beauty and diversity of high-quality yarn made by sheep farmers across the UK.

Showcasing the craftsmanship and creativity that goes into producing natural, sustainable wool products, The Farmer’s Yarn will connect you with farmers from across the country and provide opportunities to learn about the unique qualities of each breed of sheep that produces them. There’ll also be selection of rare and native breed sheep too.

Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with sheep farmers, learn a new skill, and take home some yarn that was made with care and passion and support small-scale farmers using responsible and ethical farming practices.

The Farmer’s Arms Café and Stable Bar will also be open throughout the day serving up delicious local and seasonal meals and snacks throughout the day.
