Gammon Farm

Gammon Farm, Shetland sheep, Sumner, ME, Oxford County and western Maine near Portland. James and Cheryl Gammon have been raising Shetland sheep on their family-run farm for more than six years and hold membership in regional breeding associations.

Their flock undergoes routine veterinary screenings, parasite control, and genetic health checks to support resilient flocks well suited for conservation grazing and fiber production. They manage lush pastures without synthetic chemicals and emphasize rotational grazing alongside natural lambing cycles timed for spring forage abundance. Early socialization, paired with shelter designs that allow ample space for movement, cultivates calm lambs adaptable to varied farm environments.

Shetland sheep at Gammon Farm are prized for fine fleece and hardy natures, earning praise from fiber enthusiasts and homesteaders seeking low-maintenance stock. A hands-on approach, including separate lambing pastures and daily care routines, reflects their commitment to sustainable sheep husbandry and animal well-being.
