Bio

I am an occupational therapist and currently practicing in Early Intervention. I have practiced in a variety of arenas, but working with babies and families is very rewarding.

After 9/11, I started to realize that if I wanted have my dream of a little homestead "farmette" come true, that I needed to make it happen. I did some research and found out about Pygora goats as a wonderful small farm fiber producing animal.
I started raising pygora goats and found them to be fascinating animals that produce luscious fleece. I have met some special people during this endeavor.
I have been intrigued with spinning since I was a young girl and my parents bought me a toy spinning wheel toy as a child. One thing led to another, and Harmony Homestead was born.

I have always had strong interests in creative arts and animals and have found a perfect way to combine the two. We raise pygora goats, and use the fiber to make batts ready for spinning. I do all the shearing, dying, blending and carding. The fiber is sent out for professional dehairing. What you get is the best, softest, and most wonderfully soft fiber grown in RI!
