Sheep to Shawl

June 27, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm

On Sunday, June 27, 2021, between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m., sheep, lambs, farmers, herders, and shearers, including the famous Fred the Shearer, will assemble on Brookside’s lush front lawn to demonstrate every facet of sheep husbandry, shearing, and weaving to produce the wool clothing that was so ubiquitous in colonial America. Sheep to Shawl is an interactive, family-friendly event. Young and the young-at-heart will have fun petting the sheep, meeting farmers, and participating in demonstrations.  The event is free and open to the public – A terrific opportunity to enjoy the wonderful weather, learn a thing or two, enjoy some quality family time, and see all the exciting changes at Brookside.
