How we do it
We are stewards of this land for the time we are lucky enough to live and farm here. We take sustainability seriously and are committed working in harmony with the land as we produce the very highest quality meat for your family. We spend the summer moving the flock around the property using solar powered electric net fencing and we produce our own hay to feed the flock after the grazing season has ended..
Predator Control
A pair of Livestock Guardian Dogs (LGDs) live with the flock for predator control. We like the natural method of canine behavior controlling canine behavior so that the coyotes can have their own territory and live their best lives while leaving our flock alone.
Beulah (named for the lake where Colleen grew up in Wisconsin) is a purebred Great Pyrenees.
Okatee, who we call Oka, is named for a beloved river from Steve’s childhood vacation place in South Carolina. She is a mix of Pyrenees, Anatolian and Akbash (two Turkish LGD breeds).
They’re absolutely dedicated to the sheep. We’re grateful for their work in allowing us to raise our flock in harmony with the environment.
