Event Description

Come down to Kelsey Creek Farm on Saturday April 28th from 11am until 4pm and join us for our annual Sheep Shearing event. This family fun tradition has been around since the 1980s when the yearly chore of shearing the Kelsey Creek Farm sheep evolved into a festival. Observe free sheep herding demonstrations by Brian Ricards and fiber craft demonstrations by NWRSA Spinners. Learn about Bellevue’s history through hands on activities by the Eastside Heritage Center. Participate in tractor-pulled hay rides by NW Vintage Tractor Club. Meet Kelsey Creek’s resident farm animals, interact with 4-H bunnies and go on a pony ride. Refuel for more fun with food from local food trucks or munch on Pioneer Popcorn. Sure to be loads of fun for the whole family.

Admission is free. Many activities are free, some have nominal fees. No ATM on site. Please leave pets at home as they are not allowed in the barnyard. Very limited onsite parking, shuttles available from Bannerwood Sports Park 1630 132nd Ave SE and Wilburton Park and Ride 720 114th Ave. SE.
