Lambs spend their first weeks grazing on open pasture, living alongside other livestock and receiving daily handling to foster confidence and ease during routine checkups. They use a pasture-based system with access to shelter and fresh water, and attention to breeding selections is guided by hardy conformation and calm temperament.
Their approach reflects a farmstead tradition rooted in sustainable land stewardship, with rotating grazing patterns that support soil health and plant diversity. Reviews often highlight the lambs’ sturdy builds and gentle nature, traits that align well with small-scale homesteads and community farms.
