We take great pride in offering you

locally raised top quality fleeces from Primitive, Fine, Long-wool and Down breeds.  All fleeces in the auction are examined for quality, judged and ranked by trained assessors.  The best fleeces earn a placement and score. 

Judging takes place in Langley, two weeks prior to the Fleece Show and Sale and a judging demonstration is also done during the weekend event for those interested in learning more about assessing wools.
