The Southeast Ohio Fibershed will soon relaunch our network efforts with a pared-down survey for everyone involved in the growing of wool and other fibers to the making of finished goods. This mapped network will provide a way for interested people to access those seeking services or goods, and ultimately provide value to wool for farmers or those who gather wool to sell it.
