journey

I’m on a plane back to California after six days on the East Coast. I was in Boston for the New England Farm and Fiber Festival. Lorna McCormack of the Wool in Schools initiative thoughtfully moderated the panel, Threads and Harvest - Integrating Sustainability into Food and Fashion Choices. I joined Siri Swanson, a shepherd and shearer from Yankee Rock Farm and Liz Conway, the owner of Kingdom Fleece and Fiber, a mill in northern Vermont. It was really great opportunity to consider all the steps from animal to finished product. Lorna called me a ‘conscious crafter’ a label I really like.
