Crossbred wool is in Andrea Bulleid's DNA. She farms sheep and beef at Longridge North in Southland with her husband Chris. A frustration with poor wool prices and lack of education about wool led her to launching The Sheep's Back, an innovative business that promotes the fibre and teaches the art of knitting in primary schools.
