Our Farm

Our ewes are awesome!  They come in a variety of colors and patterns.  We have both registered and unregistered ewes.  The characteristics our ewes have in common is that they are excellent mothers.  They are protective of their young, but are not aggressive in any way toward us.  We select our ewes for excellent wool, milkiness and confirmation.

If you are interested in one of our ewes for sale, please contact us.  A non-refundable deposit of 1/3 will hold your ewes until they leave our farm.  We accept checks, cash or money orders.  We will mark the ewe as reserved for 7 business days.  Upon receiving your deposit within this time frame, the ewe will be marked as pending.  The balance will be due before the ewes leave our farm.  Due to high fuel costs, delivery within a limited area can be arranged at an additional fee.

We offer a 10% discount on 3 or more sheep. Unregistered ewes will have their scrapies tag, have received their CDT , a health certificate from our vet and will be wormed for you.  There are also some registered ewe lambs available on our lambs page.
