Norn Farm

Norn Farm, Shetland sheep in Stockton, NJ, sits in Hunterdon County and the Delaware Valley near Philadelphia. Sarah Madovoy has bred these sheep for several years and follows breed association recommendations for health screening and genetic diversity.

Lambs are born indoors during colder months to ensure a safe start, then transition to pasture as soon as conditions allow. Gentle handling routines and daily pasture walks support friendly temperaments and robust growth across all ages.

The farm’s rolling fields and restored stone barns reflect a blend of rural heritage and thoughtful care for small flocks. Careful record keeping ensures each animal’s lineage and health background are clear for new shepherds. Norn Farm collaborates with local shepherd networks to stay informed about pasture management and small-flock practices. Visitors often note the relaxed pace and approachable nature of the flock during on-farm visits.
