We did a show at the Valley Shepherd Creamery, Long Valley, NJ. We were asked to perform heritage craft making demo. So we were there to show guests how candles are made. All the little children were very interested to find out. In addition, we also demo how to make chain mail jewelry. All in all it was a great day.
During the course of the day, we were able to see some of the attraction provided by the owner in the farm. We were placed in front of a half cylindrical barn that housed the baby sheep. The baby sheep was force fed by using a bottle and they made a lot of noise all day long. After a while you got so used to it you don’t even hear them anymore. We also visited the shearing site. What a sight to see. A completely furred sheep end up being naked. But that’s what this event is all about. We also find out during the late afternoon that we were setup where there is a fenced trail at the back of our tent that is used as a route for sheep to travel from their barn to the grazing area. There were over 100 sheep that passed along this route ‘going home’ in the late afternoon. I took a video so you can experience what we saw.
