Sydney Petersen

Sydney Petersen breeds Cheviot sheep in Claypool, IN, serving Kosciusko County near South Bend. Her farm has welcomed these hardy sheep for over a decade, and she holds membership in the American Cheviot Sheep Society and follows recommended health screening protocols. Lambs are raised in small family groups on pasture with daily human interaction to encourage calm temperaments.

Animals graze rotationally across well-drained fields dotted with shade trees and are sheltered in roomy barns on crisp bedding. Sydney’s approach emphasizes natural foraging and regular evaluations by a local veterinarian to ensure robust growth and sound structure. Several of her sheep have been recognized for conformation in regional fairs, reflecting years of selective breeding and hands-on care. The fleece from her Cheviot sheep is noted for bright white staple and durability, making it well suited for spinning and craft projects. Her operation respects sustainable grazing practices and local environmental guidelines.
