Rampart Farm & Wool Mill is a small, family owned, mixed farm & wool processing plant in Branchton, ON. Located just south of Hwy 8 between Cambridge & Hamilton, the processing plant is a great source for quality wool products in the area. The place is also home to a number of Jersey cows, Saanen goats, laying hens & Shetland & Blue-faced Leicester sheep. Our commitment is to grow crops & raise livestock naturally.

Lidija worked as an Operating Room nurse for more than 25 years. Her passion for nature & love of animals inspired her to purchase Rampart Farm in 1996. The farm consisted of a garden & a few chickens. To make it more self-sufficient, Lidija added livestock. She now grows her own vegetables & hay. She produces milk & dairy products that contain no preservatives or chemicals. In the wool mill, Lidija produces her own fleeces into rovings & batts, while providing custom processing for customers. Over the years, Lidija joined the local Spinners & Weavers Guild & learned to spin her own yarn. Through courses & research, she developed an art for cheese-making, organic farming & wool processing.
