Greyside Farm

Greyside Farm, Shetland sheep, Frankfort, IN, is located in Clinton County and central Indiana near Indianapolis. The farm follows guidelines set by national and regional sheep breeders associations and all breeding stock undergoes regular health testing, including scrapie monitoring and parasite screening. Lambs spend their first weeks on rotational pastures and are handled daily to promote calm temperaments. This approach ensures the flock adapts well to both fiber and small-scale livestock operations.

Deborah Hobbs has created a welcoming atmosphere where visitors can learn about sustainable sheep care and natural fleece preparation. Local fiber artists have praised the consistent staple length and softness of the fleeces. Each sheep comes with a detailed health record and lifetime support for new shepherds interested in heritage breed stewardship. All sheep are sheared annually by a professional shearer to maintain fleece quality and animal comfort, and breeding goals emphasize balanced conformation, consistent fleece density and strong maternal instincts.
