Ryan's Way

Ryan’s Way is a breeder of Teeswater sheep in Adrian, MI, in southeastern Michigan near Ann Arbor. Robin Ryan has focused on raising Teeswater sheep with careful attention to genetic health and adherence to breed standards, supported by routine health testing and active involvement in national sheep registry programs. Animals live on rotational pasture across gently rolling fields, gaining seasonal shelter in open-sided barns and daily handling to promote calm temperaments.

This approach supports wool production prized for its luster and strength, while also creating sheep accustomed to small-farm environments and human interaction from an early age. The farm’s sustainable practices include rotational grazing, natural forage management, and low-stress shearing methods timed to animal comfort. Lambing occurs in early spring under close observation, ensuring each lamb receives individual care and maternal support. Visitors often note the flock’s friendly manner and clean pastures, reflecting a blend of tradition and conscientious husbandry passed down through generations.
