Stanley Heritage Farm

Stanley Heritage Farm, Tunis sheep, Fishkill, NY and the Hudson Valley near Poughkeepsie. The farm has been committed to breeding healthy, hardy Tunis sheep with attention to genetic health and balanced conformation.

Alice Storm is a member of the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy registry, conducts regular scrapie testing to meet national guidelines, and draws on long experience in small ruminant care. The sheep graze on well-managed pasture and receive regular handling to foster calm temperaments. Flocks live in shelters designed to provide fresh air and dry bedding year-round.

Each spring, lambs are born under attentive supervision and introduced to early handling routines. Many local fiber artists appreciate the rich fleece that blends warmth with softness. The operation grew from a family tradition of small-scale farming, and its emphasis on low-stress management and pasture-based nutrition contributes to resilient stock suited for both small homesteads and community farm projects.
