Description:

From Sheep Shearing Day Website:

Sheep Shearing is one of the San Ramon Historic Foundations largest annual events drawing over 1000 people to the farm. It is an opportunity for community members of all ages to come together and enjoy a day on the farm while learning and having fun.
Over 100 sheep will receive their annual haircut and provide an opportunity for us to demonstrate how sheep are sheared. You will see how their wool is removed; cleaned and spun into yarn all while the sheep dogs are herding the next sheep in line to get their haircut.
During your day on the farm you will have an opportunity to browse around the historic buildings and you will observe wood spinners, quilters, entertainment, refreshments, tractor rides, train rides and the valley's largest display of "Hit and Miss" irrigation engines. The kid's area will keep your children entertained with crafts and games.
Don't forget to stop by the Foundation Gift Shoppe to pick up a souvenir from your special day on the farm.
Tickets will be available the day of the event at the Farm
