Please join us for Florida's 2nd Annual Fleece Show and Seminar weekend.
This year we have judge Jill McLeod judging our fleece and fiber arts entries.
Judge Mcleod will also be talking Sunday morning on Histograms and Smart Breeding Decisions.
We also have a full day seminar and workshop on Saturday by Jess Bowers on "Parasite Recognition and Testing", the morning will be classroom learning and a hands on lab in the afternoon. For those who don't want to attend the lab Jane Dula will be hosting an alternative seminar on Saturday afternoon on Alpaca Marketing and Sales. Take advantage of her 30 years in sales and marketing and learn how to survive even in a bleak economy. On Sunday there will also be an Open Fiber Workshop run by Lori McCombie where you can learn to card, spin on a drop spindle, needle felt or learn about weaving. Lori does it all!!!
This full education weekend including a delicious Luau Banquet and Entertainment for the low price of only $120 per person, second farm member $80. If you can only make it for one of the days you can attend for $60 (does not include banquet).
We have tried to keep our costs down to make it affordable while offering a great weekend of education and fun.
