About Me

My husband, 3 teens, 2 little ones and I live on a 4.6 acre homestead in Troy, NH. Along with our 2 dogs, 2 cats a few other little housecritters, we raise Silkie chickens, Dominiques, Chanteclers, and Narragansett turkeys. We also have 6 sheep (Icelandic and Crosses) and an Alpine goat wether. I am also interested in wildflower gardening, heirloom vegetables, wildlife rehabilitation and homeschooling.

New Sheep

Posted in Critter Happenings

Last Sunday, May 22nd, we adopted 5 new sheep and a goat. We drove up to the Lakes Region to pick up our new flock, and after a couple hours drive, they arrived at their new home. The flock consists of 4 Icelandic ewes (2 mothers & their yearling daughters), an older Finn ewe and an older Alpine wether goat. They are a very friendly bunch and run right up for a scratch and treats. They all settled in well with our two Icelandic yearlings. We're really happy to be able to get these friendly and beautiful additions to our farm.
Check out photos of our new flock here.
