Marcus Irrthum

Marcus Irrthum provides sheep shearing services out of Wanamingo, Minnesota, serving flock owners throughout the southeastern part of the state near Rochester. His work focuses exclusively on sheep, offering hands-on shearing for farms of varying sizes across the region.

Marcus travels well beyond Minnesota to reach clients, covering Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin in addition to his home state. This year-round availability makes him a practical option for producers who need shearing scheduled outside the typical spring rush, whether that's for wool harvest timing, health checks, or preparing ewes ahead of lambing.

For small and mid-sized flock owners in the Upper Midwest, having access to a shearer who works across state lines and isn't limited to a narrow seasonal window can simplify planning considerably. Marcus's multi-state travel range means farms in rural pockets of these four states have a nearby option rather than needing to coordinate shearing far in advance or compete for a narrow local slot.
