More Sheep

Welcome Eve, Flash and Teddy!

We bought these three Icelandics from Maple View Farm in Westfield, VT. Eve and Flash are Ewes and will be a part of our foundation Girls with our other two Ewes, Rikki and Vona. Teddy is a wether, a fixed male and will be a great friend to Cowboy our Ram. If all goes well we will have between 4 to 8 plus lambs in the spring. We plan on having them all sheared by October and them having the wool made into yarn. Looks like I might have to start knitting.

Other news on the Farm:
We have chickens for sale!!! All Organic and pasture raised, ready for your freezer. They weigh 3.5 to 5 lbs and are $4.00 per pound. The pigs are almost done for the season with a September 20th slaughter date. We still have a 1/2 of pig available.
Call us if you are interested (802) 644-8341.

Fall is coming and it is time to fill the woodshed and the freezer.
