All crafts are handmade! Knit pumpkins and decorations are filled with Tunis fiber from our flock. The soaps are made with milk from our does. The salves contain plants sustainably wild-crafted here on the farm. Thank you for supporting small farms and artisans!

We have been busy preparing for craft fairs, holiday gifts, and the upcoming maple season! Ben recently attended the West Virginia University Maple Seminar in Summersville, WV and is looking forward to increased production in the maple woods this year. Delaney has harvested many of her pumpkins and has been busy selling them in Aid. Additionally, we are scheduled to vend at the Ironton Farmer’s market Fridays in October. At the Ironton market, we will also have fall crafts, sweet potatoes, and baked goods. Thank you for your continued support of Tarheelbilly Farm!

Meet Arlo, the latest addition to the farm. Our girls are Galloways and this gentleman is a Belted Galloway. We weren't successful in finding a black Galloway this time, but the breeds share nearly all of the same qualities. #tarheelbillyfarm #beltedgalloway #cowsofinstagram #blackfarmer #heritagebreed #grassfedbeef #smallfarm #homesteadlife #backyardfarm
Life goes on. Twin lambs were born on St. Patrick's Day. The youngest farmher named the female "Patty" and the male "Rick." Bless her heart. #tarheelbillyfarm #sustainablefarm #smallfarm #tunissheep #rarebreed #livestockconservancy #yarnfarmer #woolfarmer #woolseeds #se2se #farmher #blackfarmer
Ends not woven in, tags with notes still attached, and it's 60+ degrees outside, but I am too excited to wait to share! Arboreal sweater from my very own Tunis yarn (lovingly processed by Round Barn Fiber Mill). Yarn from Jo and Julie's fleeces were used for the cream/white and hand spun Shetland for the leaves. I am not an exceptionally fast knitter, so this took a while to complete. I am happy with the way it turned out, mistakes and all, and am proud to be able to wear my own yarn! #tarheelbillyfarm #shepherdess #smallfarm #imadethis #blackfarmer #blackgirlmagic #blackknittersofinstagram #tunissheep #rarebreed #woolfarmer #farmlife #knittersofinstagram #handmade #se2se #arborealsweater #blackgirlsknittoo
Is it absurd that I know some of my sheep by their smell? Shearing the boys today and I promise you, each has their own distinct smell. Not in a bad way mind you, but like a signature just as distinct as their faces and voices. #tarheelbillyfarm #shepherdess #tunissheep #se2se #wool #yarnfarmer #rarebreed #woolfarmer #smallfarm #sheepfarmer #blackfarmer #farmher #farmlife #farmmusings #futureyarn
Finally feeling better and regaining stamina every day. It's good to get back outside with the girls. Signs of spring are everywhere. Coming soon: lambs! #tarheelbillyfarm #tunissheep #sustainablefarm #sheepfarmer #se2se #yarnfarmer #flusucks #smallfarm #wool #rarebreed #shepherdlife #sheepofinstagram
The sheep and cows need hay, even when you have the flu. 😷 Ben has been busy with maple, looking after me, and taking over my chores while I've been too sick to get out of bed. Today I am feeling a bit better. I am grateful to have a bit of strength back and the sunshine certainly helped lift my tired spirits. I am also proud of my kiddo, who did what she could to help while being very concerned about me. Keep soldiering on, friends. It can be rough out there. #tarheelbillyfarm #IwasintheERyesterday #farmtough #farmher #farmlife #shepherdlife #woolfarmer #giterdone #livestockfarmer #weraisefood #sheepfarmer #familyfarm #dontgiveup
