Before the dinner, two prominent local studs will open its gates to attendees.
On Saturday morning, the Mibus family of Glenara superfine Merino stud will welcome visitors.
The second farm is Sierra Park, one of the oldest continual operating pure Saxon Merino studs in Australia.
Lunch will be provided, and sheep and wool will displayed.
A highlight of the dinner will be the presentation by Brenda McGahan of the fourth annual ASWGA Fleece Competition.
Last year’s fleece competition winners Russell and Penny Hartwich from Kelseldale will be the feature farm on the Sunday.
Situated in the Challicum Hills at Ballyrogan, the family had a pure Saxon flock until 1988 when Rockbank genetics were introduced.
