The Mill

We’re proud to offer custom milling for those with their own fibre and fleece. Our mill processes all orders as independent batches, guaranteeing you will always receive your own fibres back. As with our own wool, we take pride in every batch we mill.

The Shoppe
Bringing new life to the old dairy shop, the Mariposa Woolen Mill Shoppe features wool and woolen products milled from our flock and processed right here on the farm. To pay hommage to the family’s origins on the farm, we are proud to also offer our Mariposa Dairy goat and sheep cheeses to taste and purchase.

The Animals

Our livestock consists of six heritage flocks of sheep and one herd of Angora Goats, all registered on the Heritage Livestock Canada Conservation List, a list of endangered heritage breeds. Heritage breed livestock is a breed that was developed and used on farms, ranches and homesteads before the advent of modern industrial agriculture. We have a passion to conserve these trusted breeds which all produce a range of unique fibre. The flocks of sheep on the farm include; Icelandic, Black Welsh Mountain, Lincoln Longwool, Shropshire, Rambouillet and Jacob Sheep. We also have Angora Goats which produce the luxurious fibre ‘mohair’.
