🧵 (Literally!)

I had a chance to visit Meadowcroft Farm in Washington, Maine to see the small-scale sheep farm and wool-processing operation.

From drought to surging input costs, farms like these face many challenges.

I also saw how federal grants have helped them grow + improve their operations.
