special guest that has done some very interesting wine and
it involves yaks.

Yeah, and not what you think about the yaks, but
Beth is one of the the Wooly Yak is one
of the sponsors of this great festival. And so she's
right in front of us. I just went over there
and I recognized her that she was my prom date
in nineteen seven. And so I don't think Jay knows
about Beth, and certainly Faith who's also working there, didn't
know about Beth. So Beth tell us about the Wooly Yack.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Great, thanks for having us.
Speaker 5 (00:57):
Yes, we are sponsoring the Atlanta Earth Festival and we
are really just eight minutes from here in Arcadia and
it's a little hidden gym. We've been opened since May.
We have twenty five acres. We have all kinds of
trees right now, Papaw, we have one hundred and fifty
seven pop pap. I brought you some po Paw wine
to try. I never had one right here, Yes, I
think so. The mix, I think that I had them
(01:18):
together and I got the raspberry hailipino.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
So we have all kinds.
Speaker 5 (01:21):
First, it's a sweet wine. I think it is. I
brought several. If it's kind of pinkish, that's the raspberry hailipeno.
You can smell the raspberry hailipenio. This popaw, it's sweet.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
It's sweet, could almost it is.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Really it is a sweet wine.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
It's but we sell fresh Papa's at our our farm.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
You could go. You could leave now it's open and
go get pop paw.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
So why why I don't taste I get to taste
the yak on the finish.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
I'm going to get you with the There are no
yaks in the wine. Just to be clear, mister Sullivan,
there is no It is grapes. It is wine with
is made with popaul pop So actually, so where did
make it out? So the yaks are on.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
The farm, Yes, Okay, we do have a farm.
Speaker 5 (02:07):
It is a farm. Okay, we do have yaks. We
have six female yaks right over there. Now we do
have no a yaks are on another one.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Yes, so there's no he in and she and going on.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Well, there might be later, but when they you got to.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
Kind of watch that because sometimes when yak boys, sorry boys,
when they get in the mood, they can charge within
a mile. So as far as like, you have to
keep them at least a mile away. But maybe next
year they'll be baby acts.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
You also have baby dell sheep.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Yes, we have sheep. And we have two cooneycomb pigs.
So we have what type of pig honey coon pigs
and what is that?
Speaker 5 (02:38):
Well, my understanding is is kind of they don't root.
As far as that goes, I'm not the owner. Chris
and Kathy are the owners. I'm a worker bee, but
I absolutely love it. It is a farm, working farm first,
and then we have wines that are not made out
of yak.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Mister Salvin's hard.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Don't call butt head like we all do.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
But we do have them there and you can go
see them and enjoy them.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
There.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Bottles, the yacks are these are wooly yacks and they're
just beautiful.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I don't know what people do with them.
Speaker 2 (03:06):

Speaker 5 (03:07):
That's the yarn and the fiber. As soon as that goes, Yes,
wine not out of the out.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Isn't Malayan, it's like a Himalayan county.
Speaker 3 (03:17):

Speaker 2 (03:26):

Speaker 4 (03:29):
So besides the wine, besides the wine, what else is it?
The wooly Yac farm.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
We have a little bit of everything. We have a
food truck. First of all, we have the trees. We
have the paw paws that are right now through and
per simmons are coming in, so we have perimons and
you can go make per simon putting pump and stuff.
So it's really farm first. And we have in November
we'll have pecan trees where we have pecan trees. So
we work with an arborist as far as I go.
(03:55):
So it's a real farm. Come see, we have lavender.
I brought you some of our goodies. That way of thought,
that could be the cab or the peen orenar no
that's not raspberry hallopino because it looks a rose. You'll
smell the raspberry jilapeno. You'll smell the one. As far
as like it, yeah, it looks a little rosy.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
We have a blueberry lemonade. I tried to bring it.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
I had it ready, but then you know, sorry as
far as mix it, but we have all of it
here to sample at the Earth Festival.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
So this is obviously pretty dry.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
The cab we have dry is very exclusive.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Yes, and.
Speaker 5 (04:30):
The wine there right now, we just opened in May
Mother's Day weekend. So right now we are partnering with
a winery in Ohio that makes our wine because our
vineyard is in a Sheridan and it's relatively young, so
it's only two years and you need about six years
to get that. So hopefully down the road that will
be there. But so right now we get that and
(04:51):
they bottle it. But you'll see almost every bottle has
our yaks we have.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
So you send the yak to Ohio.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
No, you do not send the yacks. The yaks stay.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
And that welcome to my world.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
