The 'Nude Ewe' Project

Wool is spun from the fleeces of sheep used on nature conservation projects around Bedfordshire.  The proceeds from sales are returned to the grazier to help recover the cost of shearing.  If you are interested in selling your wool through the Nude Ewe Project , please contact Laura Downton (Tel: 01234 364213
