Shearing: Each spring, dedicated shepherds and dogs lead our sheep from mountainside dwellings into low-lying pastures adjacent to the Helle home, where they will be shorn of their thick and lofty Merino Wool fleece: the fibers that protected the sheep from immeasurable high-desert heat in the summer and punishing sub-zero snowstorms all winter long.

It’s during this critical moment in the Duckworth story the state’s very best shearers descend upon our ranch, rolling up their sleeves to gently and methodically clip wool from thousands of sheep. Much like one might peel an orange, the shearers have been trained across decades to shear the fleece in a single, unbroken mass. Ensuring the sheep are comfortable the entire time is also paramount, as they can sense the energy of their respective shearers and react in turn - their union is yet another piece of the perfected and time-honored methodology required by our premium Montana-grown Merino Wool apparel.
