Rare Find Farm

Rare Find Farm, Shetland sheep, New Hill, North Carolina, is in Wake County and the Research Triangle near Raleigh. The farm has been raising Shetland sheep for several years, maintaining membership in the North American Shetland Sheep Association and conducting routine health testing for parasite resistance and hoof health. Animals graze on rotational pastures and spend nights in climate-controlled shelters, where lambs receive early handling and regular pasture turnout to ensure calm temperaments.

Several rams have earned placement ribbons at state fairs, and the farm’s focus on sustainable pasture management and natural-colored fleeces has earned praise from local fiber artisans. Visitors appreciate the farm’s transparent breeding records and the responsive communication from P Lynn Michael and Jim Michael, ensuring each sheep joins a well-informed home. Set on rolling acres with a spring-fed pond, the farm offers sheep room to roam and shade during summer heat.
