The annual fleece sale at the CNY Fiber Arts Festival features high quality fleeces from llamas, alpacas, rabbits, goats, and a host of sheep breeds. Volunteers in the Fleece Sale Tent are happy to help visitors select the perfect fleece for any project. In 2022, more than 100 fleeces were submitted to the sale.
Sponsors (at any level) of CNY Fiber Artists & Producers are welcome to submit fleeces in the fleece sale. Although you must be a sponsor to submit fleeces, sponsorships are available starting at only $25! To join CNY Fiber Artists & Producers as a sponsor, please go to the Vendor/Sponsor registration page.
