Join us on Friday, October 3rd to welcome Anna Hunter, the author of The True Cost of Wool.
The True Cost of Wool is a powerful and eye-opening exploration of the wool industry - from raw fleece to finished garment. Author and fibre farmer Anna Hunter uncovers the environmental, social, and economic realities of the global wool supply chain, with a particular focus on how imported wool dominates the Canadian market and what we’ve lost in domestic infrastructure. Combining data, storytelling, and a hopeful vision, the book shows how wool can be a climate solution, a rural economic driver, and a community-builder. For makers, educators, and fibre lovers alike, The True Cost of Wool is a rallying call to reclaim our textiles and rebuild local fibre economies from the ground up.
About:
Anna Hunter is a first - generation sheep farmer and wool mill owner in Eastern Manitoba, Treaty One Territory. She 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 are integral to moving forward as farmers fibre artists and Manitobans, and she is passionate about growing a vibrant Canadian wool industry. Her first book Sheep, Shepherd and Land, came out in 2023. And her Bestselling book The True Cost of Wool released in June 2025.
This is a free community event, but we highly encourage you to pre-order your copy of the book: https://beehivewoolshop.com/products/the-true-cost-of-wool
