Farm to Yarn: Explore Fiber Farming & Milling
As part of the NC 2025 Yarn Tour, you are invited to a Farm to Yarn Event presented jointly by Two Dachshund Farm in Franklinton, NC and Shepherd’s Gate Fiber Mill in nearby Youngsville..
Your day will be divided into a morning and afternoon session. If you sign up for the 10 am to 11:30 am tour on the farm you will proceed to the mill for the afternoon session from 1:00 to 2:30. If you sign up for the morning session at the mill, you will take the afternoon tour at the farm.
At Two Dachshund Farm you will tour a working fiber farm with alpacas, llamas, sheep, and Angora goats and in the other session you will visit a working fiber mill to see the production process that turns raw animal fleeces into beautiful yarn. Time will be included to shop at each location.
There is a picnic area with tables and umbrellas if you would like to bring a lunch and eat between sessions at Two Dachshund Farm. Two Dachshund Farm also offers an AirBnB (one king bed and a pullout couch) for anyone who would like overnight accommodations.
