Stillpoint Farm

Stillpoint Farm, Leicester longwool sheep, Mt. Airy, MD, operates in Carroll County and the Piedmont near Baltimore. Carol Mcconaughy maintains recommended health protocols with regular veterinary care and parasite management for lambs and adult sheep.

The flock grazes rotationally across mixed pastures, and lambs receive daily handling to promote calm, confident animals. They move between pasture and a sturdy barn with natural light and ample bedding, ensuring comfort during colder months. Stillpoint Farm’s selection emphasizes wool density and gentle disposition, reflecting a commitment to fiber quality and a small-scale farm heritage.

Lambing in early spring takes place in heated pens to allow close observation and nurturing of newborn lambs. Rotational grazing supports healthy pastures while sustainable practices like composting bedding contribute to soil fertility on the farm. Carol participates in regional sheep breeders gatherings to stay current on best practices and collaborate with fellow breeders.
