Fiber Fest Weekend Retreat
January 16, 17, & 18, 2025 – Thursday, Friday, & Saturday
8:30 am – 3:30 pm
Ever been curious about how fiber is processed and how to do it yourself? Try our Fiber Fest Weekend Retreat. We spend three days learning how to process any kind of fiber (we teach with wool). Includes washing, dyeing, wet felting, carding, picking, spindling, spinning, needle felting, and weaving and some history of fiber arts with practical technology. Great skill to add for homesteading, being able to process wool from your own sheep to make your own natural items.
Each participant will make and keep multiple projects.
Virtual or onsite
Retreat fee is only $297 (all three days); all materials provided.
Any single day of the Retreat is available for $99 per day.
Retreats are augmented by hands on learning tools available in the Educational Farm Museum and with a collection of fiber arts from around the world.
Registration is required. Information and registration form is online or call 918-342-5911.
Shepherd’s Cross offers these classes year-round, on an individual or group basis. Shepherd’s Cross is an accredited Agritourism facility, an Oklahoma Museum Association member, and a Made in Oklahoma Company that processes Animal Welfare Approved fiber (that is 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 a 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 and Farm Shop is open Tuesday through Saturday 8:30 – 5:30, year-round (closed some holidays).
Shepherd’s Cross holds three Fiber Fest Weekend Retreats a year: January, June, and August.

Claremore Police Department Raises Over $30,000 to Support Annual Shop with a Cop Program
The Claremore Police Department has successfully raised more than $30,000 through its annual No Shave November fundraiser, paving the way for a record-breaking year for its Shop with a Cop program. This initiative, which partners first responders with local children for a $100 holiday shopping spree, aims to make the season brighter for more kids than ever before.
In 2023, Shop with a Cop provided a memorable holiday experience for over 180 local children. This year, officers set an ambitious goal and have extended invitations to 320 kids to participate in the program. Children are selected for the program from Claremore Public Schools or through officer interactions during the year, providing a meaningful way to connect with families in need.
The fundraiser allowed officers to contribute $25 weekly, or $100 for the month, in exchange for relaxed grooming policies during November. Additional funds were raised through corporate sponsorships and community contributions. To add a fun competitive element, officers competed in categories such as Most Money Raised, Best Beard, and Worst Beard.
“The success of this initiative reflects the generosity of our citizens and corporate partners,” said Steve Cox, Claremore Police Chief. “This program not only supports local kids during the holiday season but also strengthens the bond between first responders and the community.”
