Wool

Firefly Hollow uses a local fiber mill in Northern Illinois to produce roving, corespun & yarn in an array of natural colors. Icelandic sheep wool is famous for its blend of thel and tog. The dual coated fleece is highly desirable to hand spinners and best known for creating the trademark Icelandic sweaters: Lopapeysa. We also sell limited quantities of skirted raw fleeces in the Fall especially for handspinners. So, whether you are looking to felt, spin, knit or crochet we have the perfect wool for your creative project.

This means we work closely with each shepherd to understand their unique needs and preferences. We strive to find the perfect sheep for your farm. Our sheep are raised with care, and we are dedicated to helping you find the ideal addition to your flock.

Sheepskins

Firefly Hollow utilizes a natural, chemical-free tannery in Wisconsin to craft lamb and sheepskins that can become treasured heirlooms. Our Icelandic fleeces feature a staple length of 7"-11", compared to the typical 2"-4" found in most commercial breeds, resulting in a remarkable difference. Icelandic sheep yield a variety of uniquely soft and luxurious fleeces, ensuring that no two are the same. This makes our sheepskins a distinctive statement piece, perfect for enhancing any style as a rug, interior accent, or fashionable wearable.

Grass-Fed Lamb

Firefly Hollow Farm's 100% grass fed Icelandic lamb is antibiotic, GMO and hormone free. Our lambs are raised entirely on herbicide & pesticide-free pasture and hay we grow ourselves. It is lean, tender and flavorful. Gourmet chefs consider Icelandic lamb a delicacy & our experience is that even non-lamb eaters enjoy it due to its mild flavor. Our lamb is USDA certified & vacuum sealed for freshness. A variety of cuts are available including: chops, leg roasts, steaks, kebab, French rack, ground and more. Currently we do not ship, but delivery & pickup is available in the Chicago area.
