Sweet Shrub Farms

Sweet Shrub Farms, Katahdin sheep, Carrollton, GA, serves West Georgia and the Atlanta area.

They follow established breeding guidelines, work with American Katahdin Hair Sheep International Association, and perform routine health checks to maintain the flock’s well-being. Lambs graze on rotating pastures and grow up accustomed to gentle handling under open skies. As a family-run operation, Ryan and Andrea Ayers emphasize pasture-based care that supports healthy development, natural behavior and environmental stewardship.

A sheltered lambing barn and mineral-balanced nutrition help ensure strong starts for lambs during birthing seasons across varying weather. The flock’s hardy constitution and calm temperament reflect the farm’s attentive approach from birth onward. Breeding stock is selected for parasite resistance, maternal instincts and consistent meat quality, with attention to structure and longevity. They gather feedback from new owners to ensure each sheep adjusts well to its new environment.
