Contract Fleece Processing for Micro-flocks, Spinners & Weavers

 

With just four sheep, we found it impossible to find anyone willing to process our wool, so we had to bite the bullet and learn to do it ourselves. 

We have been processing around 500kgs of wool, grown both by our own sheep and others, for more than 12-years. With development of our very own fully integrated Woollen Processing Mill, the first in Essex for more than 300-years, we'll soon be able to process up to 18-tonnes each year, to produce Batts, Slivers, semi-worsted Tops, as well as spun yarn.  We can also dye and colour match...

Any fibres not suitable for processing we use to make Wool Pellets, ideal for deterring slugs, soil improvement and moisture retention.

We can process anything from a single fleece upwards... 

We charge for all processing on "Weight Received".

STOP PRESS!! March 2025

We've started development of our Mill; the equipment is ordered and due for delivery by December 2025...  We plan to be in full-scale production by the early 2026, but spaces will be limited... 

Until then we can still accept orders to Scour and process up to 20 fleeces to carded Batt.

So, if you own a small number of sheep or are a Spinner or Weaver that has bought a single fleece ‘In the Grease’ and don’t want the hassle of Scouring and Carding it yourself, why not contact us to discuss your requirements or Reserve a Processing Slot.
