About Rainbow Fleece Farm
Located in the limestone hills of south-central Wisconsin, Rainbow Fleece Farm has been producing natural rainbow fibers since 1978. Their small-scale mill utilizes a Saco-Lowell high production carder built in 1915 along with a commercial picker to transform fleece into ready-to-spin roving. The mill currently specializes exclusively in in-house carding services for fiber farmers and hand spinners. Their multi-colored flock includes Merino, CVM, Romadale, Leicester long wools, and Blue Face Leicesters, providing a diverse range of fine to medium wools with varying crimp, luster, and strength characteristics.
