Our flock of registered Icelandics is helping us reclaim pasture along the Deerfield River, as well as providing us with unique 2-fiber wool and gourmet-quality lamb.
They are ideally suited for our climate, and the grassfed lambs are raised only on mother's milk and high quality pasture.
We begin taking lamb share reservations in August after we've made breeding stock decisions, and have a limited number of registered lambs for sale each year. We can usually put together a great starter flock or two every year.
