Introducing Myself

[Breandan]

Ravic, I know a few techniques perfected by the FSB/KGB that will come in handy to encourage them to learn better

English accent?!? I do well just to get my boothies to speak RenTex.

LOL!

Ren Tex - Nice, wish I could pull that off.

We will have a tent on Mockingbird across from Whimsey's Muse Faerie Photography. We do sell goat milk soap, and my 13 year old will be doing milking demonstrations twice a day with one of out Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats. We will also have a couple of laying hens and at least one baby goat.

The wool is from my friend's sheep. it's hand dyed, and the kids will be teaching patrons how to spin using a drop spindle. They are selling hand dyed roving, and yarn, drop spinning kits, and knitting kits.

We will bring a triangle loom, and patrons can add the yarn they spun to the project, but we are not selling any garments.

My 16 year old runs our farm. Since we live in the area, she wanted to teach about sustainable agriculture, and poly culture, and what a family can responsibly raise on a small acreage.

This is her website.

She was supposed to be cleaning up the typos and misspellings today, but we got carried away cleaning the carpets instead.

Oh, I forgot that she is also selling little bags of goat compost already mixed with heirloom seeds. She did this once for a church fair, and people really liked them, even at $5.00 a bag.

I have NO idea how all of this will fit in a tiny tent!

Editing to add something else I forgot that we are selling. My 13 year old raises Quail, and blows the eggs to make Christmas tree decorations. I need to have her add those to the website.

Sounds like your kids have a good head on their shoulders.  I most definitely will be stopping by your booth! 

And welcome to the forums!

Welcome to the R/F forums, Lady Genevieve!  We are happy to have thee amongst us.  I will certainly stop by to visit with you and your talented family, and it sounds like you have a very good location.  Best of luck!

Welcome! Can't wait to come by and check out your wares. Definately interested in the soap, my 2 1/2 yr old has some skins issues, so always on the look out for good soap...
