Mazkeret Farm

Mazkeret Farm breeds Leicester longwool sheep in Martinsburg, WV, in the Eastern Panhandle and Potomac Highlands near Hagerstown. Rebecca Pushkin established the flock with attention to registry standards and follows comprehensive health testing protocols to maintain genetics and prevent common ovine ailments.

Their sheep graze on rotating pastures shaded by hardwood trees and are sheltered in a family-style barn during inclement weather. Daily handling throughout the lambing season gently introduces lambs to human contact, and selective breeding promotes sturdy frames and calm temperaments.

Fleece from each shearing is skirted on site and graded for luster and staple length, meeting needs of handspinners and small-scale mills. Nutrition during winter is managed with high-quality meadow hay and mineral supplements to support wool growth and overall health. Beyond production, Mazkeret Farm supports heritage breed conservation through community workshops and shares practical husbandry insights with local shepherds.
