Brinkerhoff Farms

Brinkerhoff Farms raises Katahdin sheep in Paris, IL, in eastern Illinois and the Wabash Valley near Terre Haute. Hallie Brinkerhoff has guided the flock through careful selection and routine health testing with American Katahdin Hair Sheep International.

The flock roams rotational pastures with open-sided shelters and receives daily attention to ensure consistent weight gain and gentle handling. Lambs grow up alongside family life on a small mixed-use farm, learning to settle easily in both pasture and pen. The farm’s approach emphasizes resilience and mothering ability, traits that show in each season’s lamb crop.

Brinkerhoff Farms has built a reputation for producing hardy sheep suited to both pasture-based enterprises and homestead flocks. A focus on parasite resistance and structural soundness has guided selection for animals that thrive in changing weather. Daily hands-on care and year-round grazing cycles support lamb development at every life stage.
