| Exmoor Heritage Wool is a award winning, premier quality product that is part of a ‘Sheep to Shop’ concept that I am developing. The wool comes from my flock which comprises four Heritage breeds, the Jacob, the Devon Closewool, the Poll Dorset & the Exmoor Horn all of which have a long and traditional association with Exmoor. The wool is currently produced in a number of different grades that meet the needs of weavers, knitters, spinners, felters and others. The sheep are sustainably pastured on Exmoor The ‘Sheep to Shop’ concept is designed to increase consumer awareness of the holistic role of the animal in meeting traditional needs of food and clothing; emphasise the connection between Exmoor and these traditional breeds of sheep; create sustainable local employment by the re-introduction of this Heritage Industry and promote Exmoor by connecting people with farming and landscape management. |
