Meerbridge Farm

Meerbridge Farm, Tunis sheep in Inkerman, ON, is based on rolling fields in eastern Ontario near Ottawa. It has bred Tunis sheep for over a decade under the direction of William Meerakker and follows recognized health screening standards for body condition, parasite control, and foot health.

All animals receive routine veterinary care, nutritional feed formulated for maternal support, and ample pasture time through each season. Their approach emphasizes early socialization so lambs learn to interact calmly with people and other livestock. The farm’s gently rolling fields and sturdy stone barn provide a safe, enriching environment from birth onward, helping lambs develop strong legs and resilience.

William Meerakker’s thoughtful breeding practices aim to strengthen hardiness and maintain the breed’s characteristic horn structure and dense fleece quality across generations. Operating as a small, family-run farm, Meerbridge Farm offers close, individualized oversight that supports both animal welfare and flock health. Selective breeding focuses on strong maternal instincts, adaptability to seasonal changes, and temperaments suited for both fiber production and conservation grazing efforts.
