Great Christmas Gift Idea

A couple of years ago, we had a woolen mill turn a load of our raw wool into some very nice dress weight wool blend crew socks. These fit men's feet size 9-12, and are machine washable and dryable. If you'd like a pair (or more) of Shady Side Farm woolen socks, here's your chance. They are available in natural color only.


$15.00/pair








Shipping for 1-2 pair is $2.00 to the US, $3.00 to Canada. If you buy 3 or more pair, the shipping is free. 

You don't need a paypal account to order these--just a credit or debit card. When it brings you to the paypal page, make sure you have the quantity right. Then click "proceed to checkout" and then "continue" near the credit card symbols on the left of the next page. Be careful to enter your address correctly (so the socks get to you!). If you have any questions, feel free to email me by clicking on the link in my profile.

Tomorrow, we will return to our regularly scheduled programming. Sorry for this commercial interruption...

Haying 101

A few posts back, "deep end of the loom" (love that name!) asked me to tell a bit more about the haying process. If you want my version, read on. If you'd like to read the official wikipedia version, click here . Haying happens in three steps: cutting, raking and baling. This process takes several days, as the hay must be dry when baled. Moist hay molds and heats up and has even been known to spontaneously combust, burning down the barn. Gotta have dry hay. This first photo is of our haybine. The haybine not only cuts the hay, it also crimps each piece of long grass in several places, to allow for faster drying. We usually cut hay in the early afternoon, when the dew is gone. When we're done, long row of cut grass lie waiting. The hay is allowed to dry for two to three days, depending on wind and sun conditions. Obviously, the more wind and sun the days hold, the quicker the hay will dry. When we feel like the hay is nearly dry, we go out with the rake. There are diff
