| Icelandic Sheep - Share the Passion! We raise purebred, registered Icelandic sheep and spring 2009 will be our tenth lambing season. Because we are a small family farm, our sheep receive much individual attention. Our focus is on quality -- not quantity. That said, our core flock averages about 50 ewes (and yes I know all of them by name!) and roughly a dozen rams each season so that we can offer starter flock packages that include unrelated rams and ewes of the quality that we have come to expect from our sheep Raising Icelandic sheep provides for a quality of life that is priceless. We hope to offer and support others in acquiring this dream for their own families and farms. We offer pre-sale support, on-the-farm training, and after-sale support. Our sheep have brought us much joy, and they also have brought many wonderful people into our lives. Let us show you how Icelandic sheep can diversify your farm and enrich your life. Please click on the links to learn more about Icelandic sheep in general and our flock in particular. We are foot-rot free and we have tested negative for OPP. We have been enrolled in the Voluntary Scrapie program (VSFCP) since the summer of 2000. Please Note: As of May 2009, we have decided to drop out of the SFCP and be enrolled in the scrapie "Mandatory" program. We made this decision because the USDA has been changing the "rules" and we no longer feel this program works for our farm. Please note that this does not adversely affect anything we do on the farm. We are still able to import semen from Iceland and to do AI with our flock. Our F1 AI sheep can go now to any flock, regardless of enrollement in any scrapie program. |
