Our family lives in the southeast part of the state of Wisconsin
on a seven acre farm. We have been enjoying raising
wool
rabbits, llamas and alpacas for the past 19 years.
We specialize in quality rabbits, yarns and fiber.
I am currently a member of the Spindle
and Dyepot Spinners Guild, Eastern Wisconsin Machine
Knitters Guild.
I enjoy hand spinning and weaving along with teaching this
art to 4-H members and others. I keep myself busy
throughout the
day managing the farm, spinning, weaving
and devoting a lot of my time
volunteering. I spent this
volunteer time as a 4-H leader, as an
officer and committee
chairman for rabbit clubs along with currentally holding the
office of President and Web Master for the
Spindle and
Dyepot Spinners Guild newsletter. I designed and pioneered
the Rabbit Hopping program in Waukesha County and for the
Wisconsin State fair where I now hold the position of Rabbit
Hopping superintendent
I have won several Best in Show and Grand Champion
awards for my spinning and weaving in local, state and
national competition.
