Faraway Downs

Faraway Downs is a breeder of Dorper sheep in Pineview, GA, in the Coastal Plains near Savannah. It brings over a decade of experience and follows registered-flock health testing with regular screenings for parasites and foot rot. It is a member of the American Sheep Industry Association and participates in community livestock shows each year.

It maintains a pasture-based system, rotating fields to support healthy growth and letting lambs interact with the family dog for early socialization. Their flock lives in sturdy barns during inclement weather and grazes open fields the rest of the year.

Families appreciate the Dorper’s gentle temperament and reliable weight gains, traits refined by careful line breeding and selection. Faraway Downs draws on a century-old farm tradition to raise animals that suit both small homesteads and larger operations. Their grass-fed lamb has gained praise for consistent flavor and lean meat quality.
