Rose Haven Farm Store
Our fabulous welcoming red chairs!

Rose Haven Farm Store has now moved to downtown Picton to better serve you.  After 5 years on the Farm, we outgrew our space and moved into a shop on Elizabeth.  Then in 2009 we have moved again, this time to 187 Main Street to a fabulous larger & more elegant space where we can serve you comfortably year round.  We have lots of room to display our products, great display windows, comfortable chairs for accompanying males to enjoy (and women too!) and a large lower area for clearance yarns, our wonderful fibre products and for workshops

 

 


We always carry Koigu.

Rose Haven Farm Store is continuing to develop our fabulous specialty yarn shop where emphasis is primarily on natural fibre yarns such as Koigu, Colinette, Rowan, Lavold, Fiesta, Manos del Uruguay, Noro, Louisa Harding, Fleece Artist and now Lishman's Fur Yarn, the Japanese line Habu and most recently Cottage Craft Angora plus many more. We also carry handspun including Studioloo, regional breed specific yarns such as Shetland and alpaca and a variety of kits.  Knitting books, patterns, specialty buttons & needles complement our knitters’ and crocheters’ offerings.
