Welcome to Koenig Farm, Spinnery and Yarn Shop's Newsletter.

Spring 2007

Please not our server is experiencing difficulties and is not accepting orders as of 8/24/07 - if you experience difficulty please call us at 859-336-8438

We are very sorry for the inconvence and are assured it will be up and running shortly!

Kidding and lambing went well. Loads of little kids and lambs were born in the course of 4 weeks.

Then to the shock of us all, Mark had a heart attack and had two stints put it. This really slowed us down for a while as we starting changing our lives to a healthier life style. So, people who missed us at Greencastle this year, this is why we weren't there, but we will be back in 2008.

We made it Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival and had a great time - it was great visiting with everyone. So, now we are getting back on schedule.

We have also really enjoyed so many of our customers stopping by as they travel through our area, and visiting with our angora goats, sheep and Mark and I! We enjoy showing off our animals and giving tours of our spinning mill and yarn shop!

Currently, I am in the process of updating our web site. I am adding tons of new patterns & also putting some patterns on sale so I can keep adding more!

Listed below are the remaining shows for this year, and we hope to see you there :-)

DIRECTIONS:

If you are Westbound on the Blue Grass Parkway, take exit 42 to Springfield. You will be on 555 south, watch for signs for Lincoln Homestead State Park. Follow the state park sign and turn right on Rt. 438. We will be on your left. You will see a big green and white sign for Koenig Farm, Spinnery and Yarn Shop. If you reach the State Park you have gone to far.

If you are Eastbound on the Blue Grass Parkway, take exit 25 to Springfield on Rt. 150 South. When you come into Springfield there will be a light at Rt. 555 turn left on to 555. Go to the next light and turn left onto Rt.528 (Wendy’s is on the corner) Once you are on Rt. 528 you will see Lincoln Homestead State Park Signs. The road is really winding so be careful. After you pass the golf course you will come to a stop sign - go straight, this is Rt. 438. 6/10th of a mile past the stop sign is mile marker 3 - right after the mile marker is our drive. You will see our sign.

IF YOU ARE TRAVELING A LONG DISTANCE, PLEASE CALL FIRST TO BE SURE WE ARE THERE FOR YOU. WE WOULD HATE TO BE CLOSED AND MISS YOUR VISIT.
