Sheep & Wool Day

Sheep & Wool Day
Saturday, June 15, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.
Rokeby Museum’s Sheep & Wool Day celebrates Vermont’s wooly heritage. This is a family-friendly event with sheep petting from Hands & Heart Farm, kids’ crafts, historic spinning and weaving, printing press demonstrations from A Revolutionary Press, an instrument petting zoo from the Vermont Folk Life Center, farm tours and more. There will be food vendors, including Fairy Tale Farm’s sheep milk gelato and James Beard Award semifinalist A Taste of Abyssinia. The museum is partnering with the Vergennes Food Shelf, so visitors who donate a non-perishable food item will receive half off admission.
