Boone Run Farm

Boone Run Farm, Clun forest sheep, St. Paul’s Station, ON, are nestled in western Ontario near Toronto. Paul and Jana Vleuten have been raising Clun forest sheep for more than a decade and maintain membership in a regional breeders association, performing routine health screenings on every animal. The flock grazes on mixed pastures and benefits from daily handling to support calm temperaments and easy transitions to new care settings.

The couple manages a small family operation where careful pasture rotation promotes soil health and natural foraging. Visitors often remark on the lambs’ gentle nature and the visible bond between stock and keeper. This thoughtful approach yields sheep known for sturdy wool growth and dependable breeding cycles that appeal to smallholders seeking steady, well-adjusted stock. Their emphasis on gentle herd management has earned praise from fiber artisans and small-scale meat producers alike. Lambs are introduced to halter training early so they adapt smoothly to handling and showmanship events.
