Katahdin sheep
​
We started with the best genetics. Our flock of pastured Kathadin sheep thrive on clover and browse-rich pastures. While the sheep graze and roam, they also fertilize our asparagus fields. They are a friendly and content community, bred for robust immunity and ability to thrive on pasture.
Lambing in early May allows us to take advantage of milder weather and greener pastures. It's a demanding but fun time on our farm! All those babies romping in the clover and napping in the sun make it all worthwhile.
​
The flock loves hunkering in the pine woods on hot days, once filled with garlic mustard, honeysuckle and poison ivy. It's one more step to our silvopasture goals. Our heavily pregnant and lactating ewes get a daily handful of organic wheat, barley or oats and alfalfa in the last weeks of gestation to meet their nutrition needs.
We sometimes sell breeding stock, most likely an especially fantastic weaned ram lamb or a small starter flock. Feel free to inquire.

Mini-Nubian goats
We started with Nigerian Dwarf and have moved to more productive (and more cute!) Mini-Nubians. Goats are a joy to raise! We keep our herd small and registered, breeding for friendliness/ease of care and homestead milking. We breed polled goats too. Goat sales are typically posted on Craigslist.
​




rare breed chickens
We typically have enough eggs to sell spring through fall. The chickens are pastured and free ranging, organic (certified) fed and yolks are rich orange. We enjoy breeding and hatching our own Russian Orloff or other rare breed chickens. Inquire if you are interested in hatching eggs or chicks.
