It’s lambing season! Join us for a visit to a local sheep farm that focuses on raising sheep for meat rather than wool. During this experience, we’ll learn about the unique characteristics of meat sheep breeds, how they differ from wool-producing sheep, and what goes into raising healthy, sustainable flocks.
Explore the daily routines of sheep farming, including feeding, grazing, and caring for lambs. The farmer will share their expertise on breed selection, the role of sheep in sustainable agriculture, and the journey from pasture to plate.
This hands-on visit offers a deeper appreciation for the work and care involved in raising sheep. Perfect for those curious about sustainable farming, animal husbandry, or simply wanting to connect with rural life.
