My newest project:
My goal is to repurpose low-grade wool by processing it into sustainable wool pellets.
Attention gardeners and growers!!
Wool pellets are raw, low-quality wool or other fiber compressed into pellet form. They are a fertilizer (no sheep poopie is involved) or soil amendment, worked into the soil with an application rate of approximately one half cup per gallon of soil. Since wool holds 30%-40% of its weight in water, pellets can help soil stay moist, and slugs avoid the tiny fibers that swell in water and stick out. Because fiber composts in soil, wool pellets need to be added to the soil periodically – every six months or so for ground use, or whenever plants are repotted.
Step one is complete!! My sheep are sheared and I’m going to send it off to get milled into pellet form! Stay tuned! I’ll be selling these in the shop and online soon.
