Misty Oaks Farm

Misty Oaks Farm raises Katahdin sheep in Wooster, Ohio, serving Wayne County and the greater Cleveland area. Jeff and Kathy Bielek have managed the farm for over a decade under guidelines from national Katahdin sheep breeders associations, and they follow health-testing recommendations like parasite resistance screening and annual hoof inspections. Lambs arrive each spring in sturdy, well-ventilated shelters before stepping out to rotational pastures, with daily interactions to build calm, adaptable temperaments for backyard and homestead settings.

The flock grazes across fenced paddocks using low-stress handling methods that respect natural foraging instincts and support sustainable soil management. Each stage of growth is guided by balanced nutritional plans tailored to meet the breed’s lean muscle development and hardy constitution. Records of lineage and health milestones are maintained to offer insight into flock performance and inform breeding decisions.

Community-minded stewardship and attentive care have led to consistent, positive feedback from local homesteaders. Lambs are socialized early through supervised meet-and-greets with children and pets to foster confidence and lifelong companionship.
