Felting with Navajo Churro Sheep
Minna White is a farmer, artist, crafter, and felter. Not only does she own a farm that raises Navajo Churro sheep, but she is the artist behind LanaDura.com. An amazing business that sells felted and hand-crafted items from the sheep's wool.
Lana Dura's felted bags began as a idea-speck in the hearts of two shepherds who raised Navajo-Churro sheep for more than fifty years combined. Their goal is to give sheep a job and allow them to live long, productive lives contributing to the sustainability and durability of their farm. The sheep are paid to produce a product annually by contributing their wool fiber. Visit HeritageBreeds.org to get involved. This podcast series is brought to you by LivestockConservancy.org.
