THE PROCESS
These beautiful hides are tanned on our family farm in Indian Valley Idaho. The process is gentle and certified organic in England.
Why is there hay in my rug!!? In the sheep world it’s called “VM” or “vegetable matter”. The friendly process of taking each hide from the salted stage to a preserved rug leaves all the unique qualities of the animal intact. Bits of hay and seeds are a part of raising sheep. The most beautiful things in life aren’t always perfect. While we do our best to remove the big bits, removing it all would mean a completely different process that destroys what makes each hide unique.
THE SOURCE
Purchased as a young lamb from a family farm on the Oregon Coast, this sheep spent the last 3/4 of its life roaming the pastures here at Living Sky Farm.
