Thistle Cove Farm29 entries, 65 comments
Thistle Cove Farm is a small acreage farm in the Appalachian Mountains of southwestern VA. We live in the same valley my husband's kin settled in the mid 1700's and only three hours south of where my Daddy's kin settled around the same time. I raise and breed hypoallergenic American Curly horses, Romney, Shetland, Merino sheep and use the blended fiber from horses and sheep to spin, knit and weave. I come from a long line of shepherds, homesteaders, farmers, spinners, weavers, knitters, crocheters and keepers of the home. It's a proud tradition and heritage and I'm blessed beyond my deserving...but I don't mind. No, I don't mind at all and like my cousin, the preacher says, "God is good all the time and all the time God is good".
