Our Sheep

Our sheep are raised organically and are sheared once or twice a year. The raw fleeces are rough skirted and sold for spinning or crafts or are processed into the products you see on the next page. We can ship directly to you or to the processor of your choice. We have breeding and fiber stock available periodically and would be happy to help you find what you are looking for.

These are our breeding rams, JJ Brother Farley,

Farley came here from Oregon. He's an excellent tempered, well built, rugged ram with a strong medium curled silver fleece. He will be bred to several of the ewes below. We were thrilled with his first crop and can't wait to see what he produces next spring. His fall '14 fleece is currently available.

and MFF Apollo

Apollo is by our old ram Martin. Martin was the first colored LL born in the US. This will be his first season and we look forward to seeing his lambs this spring. He has a shiny tightly curled fleece. His fall '14 fleece is currently available.

Here's the wethers, starting with Merlin...

Thanks to all of you who had your picture taken with him at the New York State Sheep and Wool Festival.

Merlin is one of our wethers. He has a stunning white fleece with a moderately open curl, excellent for spinning or crafting. His fall '14 fleece is currently available.

and here's Arthur...

Another of our wethers, Arthur has a heavy white fleece, fine and with a lovely crimp. His fall '14 fleece is currently available.

and David

David also has a beautiful white fleece, sparkling with luster. His curl is between that of Merlin and Arthur. He will probably keep his fleece for the winter. His fall '14 fleece is available.
