Tamarack Tunis

Tamarack Tunis breeds Tunis sheep in Corinth, VT, Orange County and central Vermont near Montpelier. It has been raising this heritage breed for over a decade, participating in national sheep associations and conducting routine health screenings on its flock.

The sheep are raised on rotating pastures that include heirloom orchards, and each animal receives daily handling to encourage a calm temperament. Their fleece quality has earned recognition at regional agricultural shows and supports a small local wool cooperative focused on sustainable fiber practices. Breeders and hobbyists often mention the approachable nature of these sheep, a result of thoughtful selection for both resilience and friendliness.

The farm sits on gentle slopes with year-round access to clean water and shelter barns that allow sheep to roam freely during mild weather. Owner Tamera Maple oversees every aspect of breeding and says that understanding flock dynamics is key to long-term health.
