Meet our Sheep

Jacob Sheep - We have been breeding Jacob Sheep since 1993. We maintain a flock of 30 ewes and 6 rams. We almost always have animals available and are happy to help you with your Jacob flock! We always have wool available for sale.

Lincoln Longwool Sheep - We have recently started a small flock of Lincolns and will have animals available in the near future.

Meet our Mulefoot Pigs

The Mulefoot breed is critically rare. As of 2006, there were fewer than 200 purebred hogs documented. Our drove of mulefoots enjoys outdoor paddocks where they root around. Aside from pasture plants, they eat hay, corn, and food waste from Farley Hill Elementary. We usually have mulefoot pigs, freezer pork, and lard for sale.
