Seems like all it takes on a farm is a little warm weather and things start to get active. I stopped by my neighbors, Rising Meadow Farm in Grays Chapel, North Carolina on such a warm afternoon this week and found the sheep curious, a couple of early lambs about and farm owner Ron Fay out in the pasture doing a little dog training. I plan on going back next week for the annual shearing.

I went over to my neighbors’ farm Sunday for their annual open house. Ann and Ron Fay run Rising Meadow Farm near Liberty in Randolph County, North Carolina along with their daughter Beth and her husband Winfield. They raise sheep for wool and meat as well as a few goats, cows and the occasional llama. Sunday they had several people there displaying wool products and processes as well as another neighbor demonstrating his working border collie sheep dogs.
