Windsong Farm

Located in the picturesque Finger Lakes region of upstate New York, Windsong Farm has become known for its dedication to raising grass-fed Belted Galloway cattle and four breeds of longwool sheep: Wensleydale, Cotswold, Teeswater, and Blue-faced Leicester. The farm spans 175 acres, providing ample space for their livestock to graze during the warmer months. During the snowy winters, the animals are fed home-grown hay. The farm also produces specialty syrups, fruit jams, and jellies, along with a variety of tree and small fruits for the fresh market.

Windsong Farm adheres to a philosophy of raising livestock without the use of hormones or antibiotics in their feed. The heritage breeds they raise are particularly suited for grass-fed production due to their smaller size, hardiness, and ease of reproduction. The farm's commitment to quality is evident in their grass-fed and grass-finished beef and lamb, as well as their prized longwool fleece, which is highly valued by handspinners. The animals graze in uncrowded pastures during the warm months and are provided with home-grown hay during the winter, ensuring a natural and healthy diet year-round.

In addition to their livestock and wool products, Windsong Farm offers a range of berries and tree fruits, creating delicious farm-fresh fruit jams and jellies. Their dual-purpose sheep provide not only meat but also lustrous longwool fleece, which is transformed into a variety of wool products, including sheepskins, yarn, and wearable items. The farm's diverse offerings and commitment to quality make it a unique and valuable part of the local agricultural landscape.
