Kistler Family

Kistler Family raises Cheviot sheep in Tiffin, OH, serving Northwest Ohio near Toledo. They have been raising registered Cheviot sheep for over a decade, maintain membership in national breed associations, and follow guidelines for genetic health testing, recordkeeping, and traceability. Animals are reared in a pasture-based system, with daily handling to ensure calm temperaments and early socialization, and lambs experience multiple environmental exposures before weaning.

Their rotating grazing schedule sustains soil health across the family’s farmland and promotes diverse forage growth, reflecting a commitment to sustainable husbandry practices. The flock receives routine veterinary checks, targeted parasite management, and balanced nutrition, and lambing takes place in a spacious barn with ample monitoring. Notable hardiness, dense fleece and adaptability make these sheep a reliable choice for hobbyists and small-scale farmers. The Kistler Family farm sits amid gently rolling fields, and their hands-on approach offers insight into every stage of care, from breeding to wool harvesting.
