Past Time Farm

Past Time Farm, a Shetland sheep breeder in Montour Falls, NY, is located in the Finger Lakes region near Ithaca. Martha Gibbs has worked with Shetland sheep for several seasons, focusing on sound conformation and gentle dispositions. Each lamb is raised on managed pasture rotations with regular health monitoring, including routine hoof care and parasite checks.

The farm emphasizes early socialization, letting lambs bond with family members and interact calmly with visitors. Martha brings experience in small-scale farming to maintain sustainable pastures and vibrant flocks. This attention to detail aims to produce hardy breeding stock that adapts well to both show rings and homestead flocks.

The farm began over a decade ago on land once used for dairy cattle, and it now hosts a diverse flock known for its full fleece and docile nature. Their breeding selections aim for longevity and adaptability, drawing interest from homesteaders and small-scale wool producers across the northeastern United States.
