Health Maintaining a closed flock and practicing biodiversity prevents the introduction of disease to our flock. We have been awarded Vermont Scrapie Free Certification. Rotational grazing helps control parasites as well as the use of natural herbal treatments. Our sheep are grass fed in the summer and eat second cut hay in the winter. We only offer organic grain during lactation. Organic kelp and a mineral mix meet their nutritional needs. Temperament We breed for calm breeding stock. Breeding We strive for breeding which follows the quality Romney standards set by the American Romney Breeders Association and the Angora Goat Breeders Association. We breed our ewes and does in November for April lambing and kidding. Please contact us if you are interested in purchasing a lamb or kid. Memberships We are members of the Vermont Sheep and Goat Association , andthe American Romney Breeders Association. Fleeces Our Romneys are bred for long staple length, high luster, and fine handling. We strive for beautiful fleeces by covering our sheep from November to April of each year. This prevents chaff from collecting in their wool. We process our wool into roving and beautiful yarn which is sold as Yarn & Fiber CSA Shares or as individual skeins.

| We also have llamas and angora rabbits. Our llamas acts as guardians for our sheep as well as providing us with a unique fiber. We blend their fiber with our wool for a wonderfully soft yarn. Our angora bunnies have their own bunny hutch inside our barn for the winter months. In the summer, they are moved outside to larger quarters under a huge lilac tree . Our bunnies look forward to their morning treats of fresh vegetables and fruit. Their fiber is spun into soft, warm yarn. |
