Shepherd's Bounty

Shepherd's Bounty, Cheviot sheep, Nordland, WA, Jefferson County and the Olympic Peninsula near Seattle raises a small, pasture-based flock on green slopes overlooking Puget Sound. This family operation has managed Cheviot sheep for several years, maintaining registrations with national sheep associations, adhering to recommended health screenings, and attending seasonal breeder gatherings in the region.

Their sheep graze on chemical-free pastures by day and shelter in ventilated barns at night, where daily handling and gentle training help lambs build trust and resilience. Dean L Hyden prioritizes sustainable grazing cycles, rotating fields to maintain soil health and enrich forage diversity for the flock. Visitors remark on the calm temperament of these lambs during farm tours, noting how early social enrichment seems to encourage friendly, curious behaviors. Sheep from this flock contribute specialty fiber to local artisans, reflecting a blend of traditional husbandry and community-focused stewardship.
