Vermont Fiber Retreats

Come experience quintessential Vermont on this fiber, farm, and food adventure with local fiber guides, Amanda and Peggy, sheep farmers and co-owners of Junction Fiber Mill.

We deeply love our little corner of Vermont, and we know it well. We have designed these weekend retreats to share what we love about this place with you. These retreats are for the fiber enthusiast who wants to deepen their understanding of where their yarn comes from, from sheep to skein, while experiencing quintessential Vermont. We promise to make every moment special.

We're excited to offer two retreat weekends for 2023.

Each retreat includes:

  • Room & board
  • All meals
  • Exclusive hands-on tour of Junction Fiber Mill led by us, the owners. You’ll learn how yarn is made from raw fleece to finished skein, hear what it’s like to run a fiber mill, touch and feel a wide variety of fleeces and learn about the unique characteristics of breed-specific yarn. Shop our collection of breed-specific and hand-dyed yarns.
