About

Background

Located in Southwest Ohio, this family farm has dedicated itself to raising a variety of livestock, including Icelandic, Jacob, and Katahdin sheep, which are valued for both their fiber and meat. Over the years, they have cultivated a diverse flock of heritage breed chickens and Cornish crosses, contributing to their reputation for quality and care.

Practices

The farm emphasizes the importance of pasturing their animals, allowing sheep and chickens to roam freely on the land. The sheep are nourished with high-quality Orchard grass hay that is cultivated directly on the farm, ensuring a closed-loop system that supports the health of the soil and the animals. This method not only enhances the quality of the meat and fiber but also promotes a sustainable approach to farming.

Of note

In addition to their livestock, the farm also maintains bees, which play a crucial role in pollination and contribute to the farm's ecological balance.
