Join your OLLI friends for this guided tour of a local wool mill. We will learn more about the process of fiberwork, from scouring to drying, carding and spinning. Some machines will be operating for demonstration purposes. Learn how weather plays a factor in the creation of the end product and how this historic and unique facility has managed to survive into the modern era. Please plan to drive or carpool to the facility, where OLLI staff and the owner will meet you. Directions will be provided to registrants approximately one week prior to the tour.
