Meet The Adventurous Ewe Crew
The Adventurous Ewe HQ is based in Snowdonia, North Wales where Chief Ewe, Jim Young was born and bred and he now lives with his Aussie wife, Sue. Together they work extremely closely with their Leadership Team (aka Shepherds) and Crew from all over the world to create and deliver epic adventures.
All members of the flock are an exceptionally passionate and talented bunch armed with big smiles, loads of experience and up to date quals, and with plenty of travel stories to tell. The team is always willing to go the extra mile in support of our valuable flock.
It’s all about the sheep factor – biodegradable kit from ashmei
As part of our commitment to sustainable operations, all our crew are kitted out in merino based Adventurous Ewe t-shirts supplied from ashmei. Merino wool is peerless when it comes to performance: it is anti-bacterial, non-itchy, warm when it is cold and cooling when it is warm and most importantly it is recyclable and sustainable. Synthetic materials are bad for the environment, not only because of the petrochemicals used to manufacture them, but also because of the aggressive chemicals required to clean them and remove the stink factor. They are not easily recycled and usually end up in land fill. Not so for merino wool, the source could not be more natural. There are no requirements for chemicals to keep the nasty smells at bay and after years of use, they can be recycled or they are completely biodegradable. We love a great eco-friendly yarn here at Adventurous Ewe! Go the sheep factor!
