Merry Christmas

Hello Everyone!

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year!
I would like to first thank everyone for their support over 2013 and we look forward to growing in 2014!

The store hours for now will be by appointment or by chance, Thursday thru Sunday.  You can call the farm at
705-778-2070.

We still have fibre products, ranging from hats, to scarves, socks and insoles as well as yarns, wool and Alpaca and other blends.  I am finding people really appreciate the time and effort put into hand spun yarn and I will continue to create more!  Because the hand crafted stock in the store is hand made, it is always changing!  You can also visit us on the Esty Store under Elmlea Farm

We of course continue to have farm fresh eggs and there is assorted sausages as well as different types of burger ranging from beef to lamb to goat.

I will be in Maynooth on February 15, 2014 at the library and the time will be 10-4 pm. 

We are keeping a close watch on our girls...Alpacas, Goats and Sheep to see who might be pregnant. 

That's it for now! 

Continue to be safe over the holidays!  And Enjoy!

Perfect Stocking Stuffer


It's a snowy day on the farm.  Snow is beautiful that is true and it does get one into the holiday spirit!

It was so nice having people drop in to the store all weekend, just what we like!  Always nice to visit.

The response to our new products has been great!

I have shown one of our core products today, because this is a perfect stocking stuffer!   There are a range of sizes available from 5-13. The insoles are 50% Alpaca, 50% Wool.  Absolutely ideal for inside your boots to keep the 'ole toes toasty warm whether you are walking about or tobogganing and with this snow that doesn't seem too far fetched...heck even snowmobiling!!!!

The store is open 7 days a week until December 24, 2013 from 10 am to 5 pm.  We have lots of fibre products ready, from batts to roving to yarns.  As well as our one of a kind knitted, woven, crocheted products there are hand woven baskets and refurbished barn boards!

There are farm fresh eggs, poultry and assorted local meats available too

Monday, December 2, 2013

The snow has started to fall and the season is certainly upon us.  Today is December 2, only 23 days until Christmas 2013!  Where has the year gone?  It seems like only yesterday we were complaining of the heat....ah life in Canada.

The Farm Store is now open 7 days a week from 10 am-5 pm until the 24th of December.  The store is filled with a new handmade selection of hats, scarfs, and shawls along with our regular supply of insoles and comfy warm socks.  As always you will find your Wool, Mohair, Alpaca and blends there of, in our yarn selection.  Colours are natural and hand dyed.   Rovings in a wonderful assortment of colours are available for those who wish to spin their own yarn.

Something new to the store is barn board wall hooks.  They come in various sizes.  The hooks are mounted on authentic old barn boards, some boards are over 75 years old.  The boards add both character and warmth to any home's entrance way.  Their practicality make them an unique "one of a kind" gift as well as a nice addition to your own home!

The Store will also have available eggs, poultry, assorted sausage and meats ranging from beef to lamb to goat.  Our turkeys are maturing nicely and we are still able to take requests but we have only a limited supply. So order yours now by calling 705-778-2070.

Besides the Store, fibre and barn board product will also be available at the craft show in Maynooth, Ontario on December 14th, from noon to 6 pm.  Hope to see you there!
