My friend and fellow shepherdess, LaVonne, is doing a Yarn CSA. That stands for community supported agriculture and with the internet, the entire world had become a community!
Typical CSAs are run as farm gardens. You buy into the garden and then receive a share of the bounty. In LaVonne's case, you buy into the flock and receive yarn in return! She has a wool mill just 7 miles from her home and will take the wool there to be processed into yarn. The mill is certified organic and uses solar power to heat the water.
This is some very soft wool too! You won't be disappointed!
Check out her blog and sign up for her giveaway. http://www.homesteadblogger.com/serenitysheepfarm
Her CSA and other fun things are available in her etsy shop. http://www.SerenitySheepWoolens.etsy.com

That looks like a good deal, I wish I had the money to invest in it right now.
