This doesn't seem unlike the Pioneer Villages that dot the entire Western world. Nobody honestly thinks the older lady in the little wooden shack is carding wool from one of her 3 pet sheep in order to actually clothe her family, who are all out doing other pioneering duties at this very moment. She probably drove a car or took a bus from her actual home to get there for your touristy entertainment. And she's been carding that same tuft of wool for months. If you're paying for an experience, "fake" might be a bit harsh of a descriptor. Personally I love stuff like this. I did a brewing apprenticeship at a pioneer village a few years ago. It was definitely one of the most fun ways to learn the craft. It was really funny because the tourists just casually assumed the brew master was my dad. I went along with what everybody thought, and just let him do all the talking. More fun for everyone that way.
