We are located in the gently rolling hills of northern Giles County which is in southern, middle Tennessee - about 20 minutes from Exit 22 off of I65 South.
Lots of pasture keeps them healthy & happy
We started with just a few ewes 6 or 7 years ago so we
would have a readily available supply of fresh lamb for ourselves &
our flock grew from there.
We were certified with the State of Tennessee as a "Master Producer" in 2008.
Currently, we raise Percent Dorpers - ranging from 50% minimum to 93 +%.
We like the Dorpers because they seem to have better meat qualities than the other haired breeds. They are reported to have better loin areas (think lamb chops, here!). The meat has a wonderful flavor and the lambs we have processed have had a good yield - up to 56% return.
We like the Percent Dorpers because they have hybrid vigor and a growth potential exceeding that of the mothers - which are Katahdin and Katahdin crosses and as an added bonus, you get color!
