The long-running interactive “Sheep to Shawl” program at Brookside Museum returns to the Saratoga County History Center on May 9, beginning at 1pm. Sheep, lambs, farmers, herders, the famous Fred the Shearer, and the Rock Day Spinning Guild will assemble on Brookside Museum’s front lawn to demonstrate every facet of sheep raising, shearing, and spinning to produce the wool clothing that was so ubiquitous in early America. Sheep to Shawl is a hands-on, family-friendly event. Young and the young-at-heart will have fun petting the sheep, meeting farmers, and participating in demonstrations. A terrific opportunity to embrace the spring weather, learn about Saratoga County’s agricultural past, and enjoy some quality family time. We are grateful to the Stewarts’ Shops Holiday Match program for their generous support of this educational opportunity.
