Intervale 1735 Farm

Intervale 1735 Farm is a Shetland sheep breeder in Bolton, MA, serving Worcester County near Boston. Led by Ernest Ferraro, the farm follows recognized breed-standard practices and performs routine health screenings, including parasite resistance tests and nutritional assessments for overall vigor. Its approach blends traditional husbandry with modern welfare guidelines and seasonal pasture rotations.

The flock grazes on rotational pastures and enjoys daily handling to foster gentle temperaments. Each lamb is born in a draft-free shelter and monitored through weaning to ensure steady growth and strong mothering bonds. A small-flock setting allows Ferraro to offer hands-on care and maintain high fleece quality spanning a spectrum of natural colors valued by handspinners.

Visitors note the relaxed atmosphere and the sheep’s calm nature around children. Intervale 1735 Farm offers lambing updates and consultation on grazing management, reflecting their commitment to shepherd education.
