Our flock of 20 ewes are primarily Dorper, a breed that has been specifically bred to excel on pasture. The sheep are 100% grass fed. We practice intensive grazing during the growing season and move the ewes and lambs to fresh pasture daily. Intensive grazing drastically reduces our need to use de-wormers and results in lambs that have had minimal to no treatments.
Our lambs are born in April and are ready for processing in October when they reach 75-100lbs. They spend their entire lives on pasture cycling nutrients with much of our spring and early summer grazing between the rows of our chestnut trees.
