Shepherd'S Vining Farm

Shepherd’S Vining Farm, Romney sheep, Grandview, WA, sits in Yakima County and the Columbia Basin near Yakima. Operating since 2008 under Morgan Vining’s care, the farm follows recommended guidelines from national sheep organizations, participates in regional sheep and livestock associations, and maintains health records for every animal.

Shepherd’S Vining Farm grazes flocks on rotational pastures that alternate between sunlit fields and sheltered barns, with daily handling to encourage calm behavior. Their protocols include natural parasite management through pasture rotation and regular hoof trimming. Morgan Vining draws on family traditions of shepherding, with lambing methods refined over several generations.

Several lambs have exhibited at county events and drawn praise for their uniform wool quality. Wool is shorn seasonally and processed on the farm to support local fiber crafts and demonstrate sustainable land stewardship. The result is a flock known for sturdy frames and gentle temperaments suited to small-scale farming.
