Are you interested in raising sheep and/or goats but don't know where to start?
 
The Mid-Atlantic region is home to many large existing farms as well as a growing number of farmettes and smaller parcels of land. No matter how many acres, sheep and/or goats are a natural fit for our area. In many cases, they can be added to cows, horses, llamas, alpacas or other livestock you may already have.
 
More and more we are asked to share our experience, education, and general knowledge with people who are eager to learn more about raising sheep and goats.
 
We now offer a full range of consulting services that takes into consideration your budget, personal preferences, goals, and available labor.
