OUR PRODUCTS

We are committed to raising our sheep in the most ethical and healthy way possible.

  • No corn, no grain, no GMO products, no unhealthy antibiotics or artificial growth hormones in the feed
  • We only feed our sheep what they're designed to eat - grasses, legumes, and browse
  • Sheep aren't adapted to digest grain - they do love it, however, just as mankind loves McDonalds
  • Our lambs are raised on their mother's milk for 3-4 months, then fed and finished exclusively on the farm's lush forage

Our flock consists of Katahdin sheep - a breed specialized for the Northeast.

  • Bred by Ed Peil near Mt. Katahdin in Maine
  • A medium-framed sheep that is not so large that it needs supplementary feed (grain, corn, etc.) to fill the frame but can thrive on natural upland forage
  • The advantage of hair sheep is that they have a thick, wooly coat for winter that sheds to create a mostly sleek coat for the heat and humidity of the summer. Wool sheep are more suited to Britain's cooler summers
  • This breed is a result of sound animal husbandry - when livestock is better suited to an environment, the less stress and the better quality the meat.
