Mill Ridge Farm

Mill Ridge Farm is a Romney sheep breeder in Carrollton, OH, Carroll County and the Appalachian foothills near Canton. Founder Lydia Henry has over a decade of experience managing this flock with careful attention to breed standards and general health protocols. The farm participates in regional breeding groups and follows guidance from national sheep organizations on genetic testing, nutritional plans, and parasite control.

Animals graze on rotational pastures that support soil health and offer varied forage throughout the seasons, with shelters available for all weather conditions. Lambs are socialized alongside adult sheep from birth, developing a calm temperament and resilience to changing environments. Visitors often note the consistent fleece quality and the quiet, family-run atmosphere of the farm, where attention to detail is evident in every pen.

The farm’s setting on rolling pastureland and proximity to woodlands encourages natural foraging and contributes to the healthy growth of each lamb. Fleeces from this flock have been showcased at local fiber festivals, reflecting a balanced staple length and crimp ideal for handspinning and niche craft markets.
