The sweet little sheep in the above picture has a funny Festival story. The very first year I went to vend at the Festival, I saw her in the sheep barn and was told she was for sale. We had no room in our van or trailer to take her home but it just so happened that there was a man from our area who was showing sheep and he agreed to trailer her back to Michigan with his other animals. I often joke that most people buy a souvenir t-shirt when they go, but I had to bring home an actual sheep! This is Sukka, she is a black sheep with little white "socks" on her legs, so her name means "sock" in Finnish (she is a Finn sheep!). We still have her here on our farm and she is the most lovable girl ever! During this pandemic, she has come to me for hugs and scratches every day. Sort of an emotional support sheep, wouldn't you say...she's trying to tell me everything is going to be alright!
Happy shopping and I wish you fabulous purchases!
