Field notes
Why it belongs
Restored rural schoolhouse, working fiber mill, yarn-and-fiber shop, textile classes and property tours.
Visitors can buy finished and project-ready fiber goods in the same historic schoolhouse where raw fleece is processed on working mill equipment.
Nome Schoolhouse occupies a restored 1916 school building whose lower level contains a working fiber mill. The on-site shop sells changing selections of yarn, roving, felt, fiber kits, tools and other textile goods connected to wool from regional sheep and alpacas. Classes, demonstrations and Barn to Yarn tours explain the fiber process, while lodging, dining and events also operate on the property. Those hospitality and program components remain secondary to this retail profile, require their own current arrangements and are not treated as separate shops.
