As more innovative ideas emerge for dealing with our abundance of unused or ‘waste’ wool in N. America, many are looking at adding wool pelleting operations to their existing wool based business.

• equipment and infrastructure needs

• research on wool in the soil

• sourcing waste wool

• packaging

• marketing

• finances

• Q & A

Instructor: Anna Hunter is a first generation sheep farmer and wool mill owner in Eastern Manitoba, Treaty One Territory. Anna, her husband Luke, and their two sons moved to Manitoba from Vancouver BC in 2015. She started a small sheep farm, raising Shetland sheep for their beautiful wool. In 2018 they established a small-scale wool processing mill - the only one of its kind in Manitoba. They process wool and fibre for themselves and other farmers. Anna is passionate about building community and connecting rural fibre farmers with urban consumers, fibre artists and crafters. Anna believes that regenerative agriculture and climate beneficial food and clothing is integral to moving forward as farmers, fibre artists and Manitobans.
