  • Ep 238 Susan's Shire: From Yarn to Fiber to Rhinebeck

    Ep 238 Susan's Shire: From Yarn to Fiber to Rhinebeck
    Oct 14 2025

    This month Susan discusses the difference between a yarn festival, a fiber festival and everything in between. Susan just returned from the Lambtown Festival in Dixon, CA and will be heading to Rhinebeck, NY for the 45th annual New York State Sheep and Wool Festival. She gives us a little history about some of these festivals and what inspired her down the path of fiber arts and that there isn't such a thing as bad sheep's wool, because someone loves it. So, please sit back and enjoy this episode of Susan's Shire.

  • Ep 237 Nick Forrest: I’m Holding Out for an Gyro

    Ep 237 Nick Forrest: I’m Holding Out for an Gyro
    Oct 1 2025

    Sheep are cute and fluffy and produce that wonderful stuff from which many sweaters are born. But there’s another side to them that doesn’t get mentioned quite so often. Lamb is an incredibly common meat in most other countries of the world, but not so much in America.

    Nick Forrest is trying to change that direction, to capture the possibilities of a multipurpose animal that fits so many different needs. Just in time for the New York State Sheep and Wool Festival 2025, and the Saturday morning “Raising Meat and Dairy Breeds” breed talk, here is a talk about one of the other many sides of raising sheep.

    P.S. And may we just say, kudos to Shari Lewis for pulling off a character called “Lamb Chop.” Captain Kangaroo, no less.
