Wee Middlebranch Farm

Wee Middlebranch Farm, Shetland sheep, Canton, OH, in Stark County and Northeast Ohio near Cleveland. David Lewis has been raising Shetland sheep for many years and follows American Shetland Sheep Breeders Association guidelines for health testing and registration. The farm operates on a small scale to give individual attention to each ewe and ram during breeding and lambing. Its approach to husbandry combines rotational grazing with gentle daily handling to encourage robust health and calm temperaments.

It focuses on careful wool harvesting methods that preserve fleece quality and support the breed’s natural characteristics. Annual lambing seasons are managed to support steady growth and early socialization in a scenic pasture setting. Nestled along rolling fields with nearby woodlots, the farm habitat encourages diverse forage and natural shelter for the flock. Friends and local visitors often note the sheep’s gentle curiosity and tidy pasture rotation that reflects the farm’s steady routines.
