This is the first official farm blog entry. The farms are together since Gary and I (Elaina) got married in January of 2010. FCS originally stood for Forked Cedar & Scuppernog; unfortunately the forked cedar was lost in an ice storm several years ago and Gary’s Jacob sheep ate all the scuppernogs. The original fiber animals at Avillion Farm are angora rabbits, angora goats and Shetland sheep. The American buff geese, mallard ducks and peafowl supply entertainment and beauty, while the Great Pyrenees guardian dogs (Bonnie and Violet) provide predator protection for the whole farm. I will be using the farm blog to chronicle events on the farm and introduce new fibers, yarns and other farm products.
