Join us for a hands-on workshop and rid yourself of the intimidating task of sorting and grading your own fleece for higher yield in processing.  Learn the best uses for each grade as well as how to set up your own reference kit.   Everyone is expected to work with the fleece during this workshop.  This workshop is very involved.  It begins with lecture, product review and demonstration.  It then moves into hands on training where you will be on your feet for approx 3 hours.

Workshop is limited to 20 people.
