Wisconsin Sheep & Wool Festival
The Wisconsin Sheep & Wool Festival showcases the heart of Wisconsin's rich tradition in sheep production and fiber arts! Always taking place the weekend after Labor Day, at the Jefferson County Fair Park, the festival promises a delightful blend of educational opportunities, interactive demonstrations, competitions, and over 100 vendors offering exquisite products. Join us in celebrating the dedication of our local sheep producers, the artistry of fiber artisans, and the vibrant spirit of our community, as we come together to honor Wisconsin's heritage and the enduring history of working with all the aspects of this animal.
