Johnson's Heritage Farmstead
Johnson’s Heritage Farmstead breeds Shetland sheep in Potlatch, ID, serving Latah County and the Palouse near Moscow. The farmstead has raised Shetland sheep for over a decade and participates in the American Shetland Sheepbreeders Association registry while following routine health screening for parasites and foot rot. Lambs grow up on rotational pasture and spend time socializing with handlers to prepare for backyard flocks. Each fleece undergoes regular grading for fiber density and fineness, ensuring lambs are well-suited for small-scale wool projects.
Rod Johnson and Michelle Johnson maintain century-old barns that offer shelter and dry bedding year-round. Their approach emphasizes gentle handling and gradual introduction to home environments, helping each lamb transition smoothly to new families. This blend of historic setting and modern husbandry reflects the farmstead’s commitment to the breed’s heritage. Prospective owners often comment on their lambs’ adaptability and the farm’s open communication throughout the adoption process.
