Sheep shearing

  Come and experience the traditional crofting event of sheep shearing. The sheep kept on the islands have been integral to life on the islands and to this day the wool is a key element in the islands economy with the wool often sold to make Harris Tweed or British wool. Please note the event is weather dependent and is liable to last minute cancellation. In addition as the event is held in the rural community the ground can be very uneven, and no toilet facilities are available. Instructions for getting to the event will be given on booking.

Peat cutting

Join us in experiencing the age old tradition of peat cutting. Peat was once the main fuel source on the island with each croft receiving a peat bank to cut from on the common grazing. Nowadays crofters who still cut peats tend to do it as a top up to their main fuel source, and for most islanders nothing beats the nostalgic smell of a peat fire. Please note the event is weather dependent and is liable to last minute cancellation. In addition as the event is held in the rural community the ground can be very uneven, and no toilet facilities are available. Instructions for getting to the event will be given on booking.
