We are blessed to share our farm with nine sheep, three wethers, one ram and five ewes. They all were born in 2008, and we have grown up together: them from lambs to adults, and us into shepherds.

The purpose of our flock is twofold. First, to provide us with grazing and direct fertilization; and second to provide us with their wonderful wool for our own use, and for sale to knitters and spinners. Our spring-born lambs are available for purchase in the late summer.

Our sheep enjoy a robust diet of orchard grasses and forbes, hay, culled fruit and a little bit of sweetened rolled barley. They also enjoy the occassional cracker or cookie and lots of scratches on their chests and behind their ears. Albert calls them the "best tasting sheep that will never be eaten."
