Sunbrook Farm

Sunbrook Farm, Katahdin sheep breeders in Duncansville, PA, care for flocks in the Allegheny Mountains near Altoona. Rick Barefoot and Jennifer Barefoot have refined their breeding program with attention to sound conformation and reliable maternal instincts. Their flock follows recommended health protocols with regular hoof care, vaccination schedules, and targeted parasite management under pasture rotation.

Lambs grow on open pastures and spend early weeks close to the farmhouse, allowing frequent handling and gentle socialization. Breeding decisions emphasize genetic diversity, selecting for resilience and low-maintenance coats suited to seasonal weather shifts. The farm participates in local agricultural fairs, showcasing lambs that reflect consistent growth rates and balanced wool coverage.

The Barefoots maintain a hands-on approach to daily care, with rolling fields and shelter barns that balance natural foraging with protection from the elements. Local farmers appreciate the consistency of Sunbrook Farm lambs, noting their hardiness and even temperament.
