Tri-Star Stock Farm

Tri-Star Stock Farm breeds Tunis sheep in Burlison, Tennessee, in Tipton County and West Tennessee near Memphis. John Wade Martin and Josie Mcgeorge have managed this family operation for generations, hold membership in the American Tunis Sheep Breeders Association, and participate in association events, adhering to health screening protocols for the flock. Their sheep graze rotationally across warm-season pastures shaded by oaks and access fresh water from solar-powered pumps. The breeding program highlights the hardiness and fleece quality of Tunis sheep.

They return to a ventilated barn outfitted with clean bedding during lambing and receive supplemental local alfalfa hay in winter. Early, gentle handling helps lambs develop calm temperaments and ease the transition to new homes. Each sheep undergoes annual fecal exams and parasite screening to support flock health and performance. Visitors remark on the farm’s welcoming atmosphere and the owners’ willingness to share practical advice with neighbors and fellow breeders.
