First Cuts & Second Cuts ~ Fibre & Hay!
First Cuts & Second Cuts ~ Fibre & Hay!
Summer months ebb and flow between hay season and ongoing fibre production. It's funny how hay & fibre share some of the same lingo. Hay season involves a first cut (early) and second cut (late summer) of fields of hay which we use to feed our crew year round. Fibre cuts refer to the location of where fleece grew on the alpaca ~ first cuts (blanket/backs) and second cuts (neck/rump). These months go by quickly for us and before you know it fall is here and the work of getting the farm ready for winter begins!
