Our classes go a degree farther, teaching history of fiber arts, use of practical technology and are augmented by hands on learning tools available in the Educational Farm Museum.

Shepherd’s Cross offers weaving and fiber arts classes year-round, on an individual or group basis. Shepherd’s Cross is an accredited Agritourism facility, an Oklahoma Museum Association member, Farmer’s Market Hub, and a Made in Oklahoma Company that processes local Animal Welfare Approved fiber (chemical free, hormone free, free range, all natural). Shepherd’s Cross hosts a mini wool mill, processing the wool from their own sheep raised on site.

Heart of the Shepherd is the non-profit organization (501-C3) that operates at the farm and establishes wool mills in remote, impoverished areas around the world. Heart of the Shepherd teaches Biblical references to the harvest, the animals, farming, and gardening.

Shepherd’s Cross Farm Store is open Tuesday through Saturday 8:30 – 5:30, year-round (closed some holidays).
