| It was winter of 2005, when I 'discovered' Icelandic Sheep. I was intrigued by their history, their beautiful fleeces and colors, and the majestic bearing of some of the rams. I decided it was time to return to an earlier interest in raising sheep. By March I had selected and brought home my first 3 ewes. In only a year my little flock grew to 17 animals. My focus is fleece for spinning and felting, registered breeding stock, and an occasional meat lamb. As a spinner, felter and weaver myself, I know what I like in a hand spinning fleece. My goal is to produce beautiful fleeces that other spinners will enjoy as much as I do, as well as quality breeding stock. I am a member of the Icelandic Sheep Breeders of North America, the Canadian Livestock Records Corporation, and I participate in the USDA Voluntary Scrapie Program. Farm Blog |
