Since 1987, this annual event has become a springtime tradition on the grounds of our historic, 50-acre estate.

People often tell us that spring doesn't begin until the Sheepshearing Festival!

This event features live musical acts, 100+ craft and fiber artists, demonstrations of traditional shearing techniques, herding dogs, historic re-enactors, and hands-on activities for the whole family!
