Frequently Asked Questions

Every animal in our flock has been rescued from the meat industry — mostly from livestock markets, farms facing closure, or animals that were about to be sent for slaughter. They live out their natural lives at Fred & Freda's Forever Farm.

No. Shearing is essential for a sheep's health and comfort. Our sheep are handled calmly and respectfully by an experienced shearer to minimise stress. Every fleece is a gift, not a by-product.

Each rug or gilet comes from a real sheep with a name, a personality, and a story. Where possible, we share exactly which sheep your fleece came from — so you know the life behind the fibre.

We occasionally host open farm days in summer — sign up to our newsletter or follow us on social media to hear about upcoming events. We love welcoming visitors to meet the flock.
