Shave ‘Em to Save ‘Em Webinar:
Connecting Shepherds with New Markets
7 p.m. (EST), Wednesday, Jan. 7, 2026
Join us for a special webinar highlighting how shepherds are successfully building new markets for rare breed wool through The Livestock Conservancy’s Shave ’Em to Save ’Em initiative.
In this webinar, you’ll hear directly from two accomplished shepherds who are turning conservation into opportunity:
- Gabriella Nanci, owner of Belle Fourche Farm, who has cultivated eager fiber artist customers for her Teeswater, Leicester Longwool, and Dorset Horn wool
- Diana Dougherty, owner of Hestia’s Homestead, who specializes in Navajo Churro sheep and has found great success marketing her wool
They’ll be joined by Brittany Sweeney, marketing specialist, who will share practical insights and answer questions about promoting wool and fiber products through social media and other outlets.
Whether you’re already participating in Shave ’Em to Save ’Em or exploring new ways to reach customers, this webinar will offer inspiration and actionable ideas.
