Teresa Perleberg

 

Teresa Perleberg with her husband Jeff raise a flock of over 300 sheep. She developed a niche market using their wool by designing needle felting kits with instructions and materials to complete the project. She began selling her kits online in 2008 and in 2017 added an online subscription membership teaching needle felting through video courses. Teresa focused on growing her customer base through free social media marketing and building her email list.


 In 2018 she along with Chris Armbrust of Dakota Fiber Mill purchased the Nome Schoolhouse and began renovations to house their businesses and a fiber arts retreat center. In 2020 they partnered their businesses forming Shepherd Industries. They completed renovation of the school and opened to the public in July of 2021. The Nome Schoolhouse is a boutique hotel and event center along with housing Shepherd Industries and the 501c3 the Nome Eweniversity which focuses on providing education on the entire fiber process from Farm to Needle. 


Teresa loves spending her time creating with wool and taking care of the sheep that provide her favorite medium. She also loves photography and making videos for their EweTube Channel and her membership courses. Teresa and her husband Jeff raised 4 children on their farm by Fort Ransom, North Dakota.

Marcy, our instructor, is a gifted teacher, able to let each class member proceed at their pace. No pressure, instead a focus on enjoying the process! Our baskets are beautiful. Nome schoolhouse is a worthwhile destination. Should I feel guilty sleeping in a classroom?! They provided an enormous, gluten free breakfast with our room. Lunch was included with the class. Dinner the night before was drinks, chicken wings and burgers in their restaurant. Our class was on Valentine's Day so we stayed for an appetizer, salad, main meal, drinks and dessert special meal. And, did I mention YARN, ALL THINGS WOOL, and tours available! We will be back, for certain!

WOW! My mom & I went to this retreat not knowing much about wool or any fibers at all. Wow has that changed! In our group there were folks who had their own flocks of sheep and alpaca, Chris would give specific information relating to their animals while still managing to not go over my head. Everyone on staff was incredibly generous with their time and their resources. We walked away with an entire garbage bag of art supplies AND a full belly- I think I'm still full after two days! On our way home, we were planning who would we would bring with us for the next retreat. ❤️ Chris, Teresa, & their team deserve all the success that comes their way.

I had a wonderful time! The Nome schoolhouse is amazing along with the people there! A great place for a retreat and classes. This was the second time I was as Nome and look forward to my next visit. The knitting classes with Cori were amazing! A beautiful woman inside and out filled with so much knowledge and an excellent way of teaching. She was always watching each participant to see if they had questions or were having issues completing the stitches. Before you knew it, she was standing beside you with a gentle hint that solved the problem. After teaching for 30 years, I noticed her natural love of her work and her natural way of passing on that information. I look forward to having the opportunity to take more classes from her.
