Knoll Acres

Knoll Acres, Barbados Blackbelly sheep, Harrisonburg, VA, sits in Rockingham County and the Shenandoah Valley near Charlottesville. Owned by Roman J Miller, the family-run farm has focused on breeding Barbados Blackbelly sheep for several years and participates in national breed registry programs with routine health screenings and parasite management.

Flocks graze on rotating pastures shaded by mature trees, and sturdy shelters provide comfort through winter storms. Every lamb is handled daily from birth to build a calm temperament, and regular socialization with other livestock supports adaptability. Breeding stock includes ewes with proven lambing records and rams selected for hardiness and maternal instincts.

Established on a former orchard, the farm leverages naturally shaded grazing areas and maintains tidy pens. Visitors often comment on clear guidance for new owners and the sheep’s gentle nature. Knoll Acres follows a balanced diet plan to ensure steady growth and strong maternal care.
