Welcome!We are a family owned and operated small ranch on the outskirts of Austin. My husband Dan and I moved to Texas from Chicago in 2013 with our gaggle of kitties to pursue our dream of living off the land. My love of fiber arts led us to purchase our first herd of Angora goats. Our "fiber boys" are very spoiled and live to produce their beautiful mohair that I process for you to enjoy. We raise Miniature Harlequin and Southdown Babydoll Sheep and are breeding these adorable animals for pets. I also make artisan soap which is hard to keep in stock everyone loves it so much. We hope you enjoy our website and the products we offer.

Our 2018 lambs have all gone off to their new homes. A pair are in Colorado, and a wether is at a winery in Texas. Black Jack and Adonis are now at a middle school in Austin TX. We will have more lambs available in Spring 2019. Please contact us to reserve your lambs. |
LAMBSOur Harlequin sheep are registered with the AMHSR. This amazing breed was developed here in the United States and are well known for their spotted wool that is typically fine to medium coarse.

FIBER FOR SPINNINGHere at the ranch we raise our Angora goats for their beautiful Mohair fiber. We shear our goats twice a year. Then we go through each fleece lock by lock to remove any vegetable matter. Next we wash our fleeces and let them air dry in the hot Texas sun.

HANDMADE ARTISAN SOAPSAll of our Artisan soaps are hand made in small batches with a variety of vegetable oils. Coconut oil, Avocado oil, Sunflower oil, Soybean oil, Castor oil, Olive oil and Shea Butter are some of the ingredients we use.
