Woodland Acres

Woodland Acres, Romney sheep, Danielson, CT, in Windham County near Providence, is a family-run farm dedicated to the careful breeding of hardy, wool-producing sheep. Emma Rogers has been raising Romney sheep for more than a decade and maintains membership in national livestock and wool associations to stay current on best practices.

The flock rotates through lush pastures under attentive supervision, moving to fresh grazing areas to support sustainable land management. They shelter each night in a ventilated barn where lambs receive early socialization and gentle handling. Woodland Acres follows rigorous health-testing protocols, including annual screenings for common ovine diseases, to promote a resilient flock. Emma takes care to pair ewes and rams based on temperament and fleece traits, preserving each bloodline’s distinctive qualities.

Known for soft, lustrous fleeces prized by local artisans, the farm emphasizes balanced conformation and temperament. Visitors often note the sheep’s calm nature and the farm’s peaceful setting among rolling fields and woodlands.
