VAI-KO Merino Wool

Organic merino wool from licenced farms.

ORGANIC MERINO WOOL - PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA

The organic merino wool used in VAI-KO's products comes from organic farms in Patagonia Argentina. In organic farming no harsh pesticides or antibiotics are used instead organic farmers take a preventative approach to disease. Organic animals are reared on organic feed, they graze on organic land and are free to pursue their natural behaviour with plenty of space outside. Keeping the sheep packs in reasonable size prevents erosion and helps the natural diversity of the area stay in balance.

Organic farming takes extra care of animal wellbeing not only by providing them a natural habitat and food but making sure the shearers are well trained for their jobs making the shearing experience least stressful for the sheep.
