We want to make a difference

We are registered as a provider for the Shave 'Em to Save 'Em program from The Livestock Conservancy, which encourages fiber artists to purchase wool from endangered sheep breeds here in the United States.

The current list includes: Black Welsh Mountain, Clun Forest, Cotswold, Dorset Horn, Florida Cracker, Gulf Coast, Jacob, Karakul, Leicester Longwool, Linciln Longwool, Navajo-Churro, Oxford, Romeldale/CVM, Santa Cruz, Shetland, Shropshire, Teeswater, and Tunis.

There are a few more, but these are breeds that we carry on a regular basis, which we proudly source from from small, mostly local, shepherds. If you cannot find a listed for a breed you are interested in, send me a message at case@aoiremaithfibrestudios.com - I might have a fleece waiting to be listed or processed!
