From ECHO's Farm: Sheep Shearing

ECHO North America Regional Impact Center’s sheep recently received their yearly shearing! Each spring, we shear our sheep to prepare them for the summer heat. A local professional shearer graciously volunteers his time, and our interns get a chance to try it out as well. Lately, we have been using the sheep to help restore the productivity of our pasture through practicing rotational grazing, and we will soon see an increase in the size of our flock; our next lambs are this coming June!
