Farm Weekly Feature

We love the work of the Farm Weekly and love that they love Sheepfest!

Wool will be a focus of the 2023 Act Belong Commit Darkan Sheepfest, starting with the shearing and wool handling competitions, the merino ewe hogget competition, blade shearing demo, and pet sheep competition; and there will be woollen clothing on display at the fashion parades.

Guest speaker Emily Riggs, of fashion label Iris and Wool, will give an insight into the benefits of wearing wool, and will showcase a couple of the Iris and Wool outfits.

The Farm Weekly is a valued sponsor of Darkan Sheepfest
