Ben Hearne

Ben Hearne provides sheep shearing services out of Leicester, North Carolina, serving flock owners throughout the western part of the state near Asheville. He works year-round, which gives small farms and larger operations alike the flexibility to schedule shearing around lambing, weather, or wool market timing rather than a narrow seasonal window.

Beyond local jobs, Ben travels a wide circuit through Alabama, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia, making him a familiar option for producers across the Southeast who need reliable hands during peak shearing months. That range suggests experience handling varied flock sizes and breeds, from backyard hobby sheep to working farm herds.

For shepherds coordinating shearing days, having someone who travels this extensively and works consistently through the year can simplify planning, especially when local shearers are booked solid during the busiest spring stretch. Farmers in the Leicester area and beyond may find his availability useful for keeping flocks on a steady, low-stress shearing rotation.
