Marlfield Farm is a small farm on the North Yorkshire and Lancashire border in the UK. It has been worked by the Procter family for over 100 years and is now also home to a small flock of native British sheep who happily graze the green pastures throughout the year. Sustainability and the ecological balance of the land and animals takes centre stage in everything we do and as a consequence, we are now pleased to be able to offer rare breed single-farm wool products for sale.
We generally price our fleeces according to the following method. We start off with a baseline of approximately £10 per kilogram, and then we take off a certain amount if there are any negative factors, such as if there is a lot of vegetative material, or if there are any double cuts. We then add on a certain amount if there are any extra special features, such as rarity, or if it is a really nice fine fleece. We try to keep to this same pricing method so that it is consistent for our customers. Our prices may be slightly higher as we must charge VAT on the fleeces we sell. The prices you see on our fleeces include VAT. We hope this helps to explain some of the variation in our pricing.

The quality is great just as described & I am really looking forward to working with it although it is probably going to be a month or two as it is in a que of other " projects " but it will be before the summer is out as I am determined to have it on my sofa for the winter ! Thank you Marlfield Yarn for a beautiful fleece, well packaged & delivered quickly. "
