Nutshell Farm

Nutshell Farm Shetland sheep Springfield, OR is a small family operation rooted in traditional husbandry with over a decade of focused breeding for wool consistency. Jonathan Loftin is a member of the American Sheep Industry Association and the National Sheep Improvement Program, keeping detailed breeding records and conducting annual health screenings and parasite controls. Breeding selections emphasize fiber micron count, structural soundness, and a calm, approachable temperament.

The flock thrives on rotational grazing across mixed pasture and woodland, with organic hay and trace mineral supplements during colder months. Wool is professionally sheared each spring to meet artisan standards, and a regional weaver has praised its fine luster and ease of spinning. The farm supplies breeding stock across Lane County and the Willamette Valley near Eugene. Visitors note the sheep’s gentle nature and the farm’s serene country setting, which supports both animal welfare and a connection to rural life.
