2023 Fleeces

Welcome to Harmony Marsh Farm! We have a small flock of Purebred Shetlands and a few Shetland x Gotlands. I primarily breed for fine fleeced Shetlands that will have soft and crimpy fleeces. All of the Fleeces are raw and have only been lightly skirted.

This is my first time publicly advertising fleeces and I’m new to the fibre arts world, so I will try my best to answer any questions you may have! Any shipping would be on the buyers expense.


The pictures of the fleece samples next to the tape measure were all taken from about mid side. 

I may also have some 2022/2021 fleeces available soon. My Facebook page is called Harmony Marsh Farm if you would like to follow along to see the sheep the fleeces are coming from.
