Wool is used as a sustainable fiber throughout the marketplace. It is sought after in the clothing industry for keeping wearers warm and dry, but did you know it has incredible benefits for sleep?
Wool is incredible for staying comfortable throughout a long summer or winter night. Its greatest benefit is that is helps you regulate your body temperature, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
You know the saying ‘counting sheep?’ I’m pretty sure that they’re talking about wool bedding…
the benefits
Wool helps you regulate your body temperature. It keeps you cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
Wool is naturally hyper-allergenic
Wool is easy to clean, simply air it out on a sunny day to keep it fresh
Wool is a durable material that can be re-felted into bedding several times over its lifetime
Wool mattress pads give you extra support for better sleep
Harvesting wool keeps our sheep comfortable too. Wool is harvested before the spring and summer heat, so harvesting wool helps our ewes have a light summer jacket that helps keep them cooler.
Stay comfortable, sleep on wool

Well, the day finally came! Erma welcomed two healthy lambs yesterday evening. Meet Cain, the firstborn son at Homestead, and Eva his sweet little sister.
While I wish I could say I watched the birth of my FIRST lambs, I was out running farm/house errands when I got a call from my brother-in-law asking if I knew about the lambs. Then a phone call from Matt shortly after letting me know 'they are super cute'... I asked all the good Mama questions, are they standing? Are they dry? Are they nursing?
Pulling in the driveway my heart was racing, there they were! The sweet faces of newborn lambs. I helped dry them off, though it wasn't too cold yesterday, as a first time lamb Mama I wanted to do everything right. Erma is an incredible mama, delivering these sweet babies on her own and is caring for them so well.
We have six mama's yet to deliver, who wants to make a guess at our final lamb count?!
