The Enterprise — Elizabeth Floyd Mair

Nothing says springtime like a newborn lamb. This is one of 50 raised by Regina Embler of Applewood Acre sheep farm in Wright. The enterprise started as a 4-H project of her daughter Caroline some 40 years ago; when Caroline went off to college, Embler kept the sheep. “I just couldn’t sell them,” she said. Now she sells some of the animals for meat, and shows sheared wool in fairs and sells it to hand spinners.
