Sawyer Creek Farm

Winter is flying by and I have forgotten to post any updates. I have been busy making items to sell this summer. Hopefully farmer's markets will be open. I have a few items listed on Etsy. Lots more not listed so if there is a particular Item you wish I might have it. Lots of feed sack recycled grocery bags at 5.00 each. I have about 20 different animal photo choices.

Caught by surprise on the mean streets of Newberg, my worst nightmare had come true: a vicious attack by a creature against which I had no defense. Immune to th...e temptation of even my tastiest dog biscuits and utterly impervious to the spine-tingling effects of the most effective weapon in my arsenal...the Scratchie Claw...this remorseless ruminant had silently snuck up behind me and backed me into a corner from which I could not escape. I was in a baaa-aaad position, in danger of taking a serious bleating at the hands of this beast, and I knew it. With retreat impossible and appeasement futile, I was left with only the option of last resort; hand-to-hand combat. My training and reflexes kicked in. I was instinctively aware that my first priority had to be to keep its fangs away from my throat. As it lunged for my face, I parried its strike with a forearm and was able to wrap both arms around it. A chop to the midsection stunned it long enough for me to gain the upper hand in the struggle and finally make my escape to the safety of the truck. This experience, although traumatic, taught me an important lesson; ewe must always be prepared to defend yourself at a moments notice!

No posts in a long time I see. Changing the focus of the farm. I no longer raise any animals. Sold all the sheep and chickens last summer as a pre retirement downsizing. I have enough fleeces to spin for the rest of my life. I will continue to knit up a storm this fall and winter in the hopes of less Covid so I can continue selling at farmer's markets and craft fairs.

It's been a sad, but good week here at Sawyer Creek Farm. All of my sheep are sold and all but 2 cull ewes are gone. They go to the butcher next week. Then I will start actively selling my egg laying hens to complete my plan to be retired from barn chores. I have enough fiber in the house attic to last me a lifetime and there is lots of other projects to fill my time including warping a weaving loom and learning how to use my embroidery sewing machine
