Two Sisters Daerie Farm

Two Sisters Daerie Farm, Katahdin sheep in Guinda, CA, operates across Northern California near Sacramento. Amanda Ames follows breed association guidelines, monitors flock health with a licensed veterinarian, and maintains detailed genetic records for each animal.

The farm participates in regional sheep breeders events to support knowledge sharing and maintain breeding standards. The sheep graze on rotational pastures bordered by oak woodlands, open meadows, and rolling hills, which supports natural foraging, shade in warm months, and strong hoof health. This breed’s natural resistance to parasites is supported by minimal chemical intervention and attentive pasture rotation.

Lambs are handled gently from an early age to build trust and confidence. The farm’s steady approach has led to consistent lambing seasons and sheep with calm temperaments. Guest workshops on shepherding basics are offered periodically, giving new keepers practical animal care experience in handling, shearing, and pasture management.
