Notlwonk Springs

Notlwonk Springs raises Romney sheep in Cornish, UT, in Cache County and the Bear River Valley near Logan. Ann Knowlton has been working with Romneys for over a decade and is an active member of the American Romney Sheep Association, ensuring routine health testing for fleece consistency and foot health.

The farm dates back to her family’s homesteading roots, and animals graze on rotating hillside pasture that reflects a commitment to soil conservation. Lambs are handled daily from birth to develop calm temperaments and early social bonding. Each small flock group allows for close tracking of growth rates, breeding lines, and wool yield.

Sustainable practices guide natural wool washing, hand carding, and small-batch dyeing using plant-based pigments. During shearing season, visitors and fiber artists can observe traditional methods and ask questions about fleece grades. Many clients note the soft feel and consistent staple length of the wool, praising the mindfully managed flocks and the farm’s quiet charm.
