Lissy's Zoo, located in Sutter Creek, CA, is a farm that specializes in raising fine merino sheep and producing high-quality wool products. Their flock of merinos, originally from the renowned Mendenhall Ranch, yields fleeces that are sent to mills to be spun into beautiful yarns and blankets. Lissy's Zoo also offers a range of workshops and classes on various fiber arts, including crocheting, knitting, natural dyeing, sewing, and spinning.
With a commitment to sustainable practices, Lissy's Zoo dyes their yarns using natural items found on the ranch and in the surrounding landscape, such as marigolds, acorns, onion skins, and tomato leaves. Their wool blankets are made from the finest wool and graded wool sourced from local sheep ranches, ensuring a cozy and eco-friendly product. Visitors to Lissy's Zoo can explore the farm, learn about their textile production process, and even indulge in farm-fresh goodies at the Sutter Creek Farmers Market during the summer months.
