The Sheep

The sheep on our farm belong to Sigrid. She bought three ewes, four lambs, and a ram in the spring of 2013. After lambing season in January and February of 2014, Sigrid's flock numbered 14. By March 2016 we were up to 26 sheep, and the spring lambs hadn't arrived yet. We cut back a little after that and are now down to 5 ewes.

The sheep live in a pen with hoop-house shelters and hay to eat for the winter.

The sheep are pretty much free-range in the summer. We use them in place of a lawnmower in our yard several times per summer.

The older ewes are Marianne and Hidde. The rest of the ewes are Marianne's daughters or granddaughters.
