It’s getting really close to breeding season around here, and with multiple rams, multiple generations of sheep, and a whole lot of “who should go with who?”… things can get complicated FAST. 😂🐑

So today, we decided to dumb it down. 😂

We wrote everybody’s name out, figured out which ram each sheep is going with, and started making our breeding pens one pairing at a time. Because sometimes the best way to keep a complicated breeding plan straight is to put it all on paper and hope we don’t lose the paper. 🤣

Now let’s see if we can actually get everybody where they’re supposed to go! 🐏💕🐑

We have a NEW soap! 🌿

Revive is fresh, clean, and just a little bit invigorating — eucalyptus + mint essential oils, with fresh sheep milk from our own flock.

This one smells like taking a deep breath after being outside all day. Crisp without being overpowering, and with that creamy sheep milk lather I love.

I think this might be my new favorite. 🤍

Made by hand, with milk from our sheep, right here in rural Maine.

People ask me what I do as a farmer.

The truth is, I manage land.

If I manage the land well, the animals have what they need to grow, stay healthy, and thrive.

If I manage it poorly… well, you know.

That’s really the job. The animals are the visible part. The land is where it all starts.

My favorite part of the morning. 🤎

Before the chores begin. Before the day gets busy. Before everyone else wakes up.

The house is still dark.
The morning is slow.
There’s nowhere I need to be just yet.

Just yarn, coffee, a sleepy dog, and a few peaceful minutes to myself.

These quiet mornings feel like a little gift. 🧶☕️🐾

Has this lamb ever seen a brush before? Nope. 😂

Is he totally okay with me brushing him all over his body? Absolutely.

Bottle babies bring a little extra fearlessness to the pasture, and honestly, it makes everyday management and care SO much easier. They’re used to being handled, touched, checked over, and fussed with from day one.

Of course, those every-three-hour feedings have a downside… you get really attached to them. 🥹❤️

🍂✨ Autumn Alchemy is here! ✨🍂

Just going to drop this here… our new fall colorway is officially online! 🧶

I’m putting it up for grabs before I head to the Machias Fiber Festival in mid-September because the last time I brought a special fall colorway to this festival, it sold out. 😳

So if Autumn Alchemy is calling your name, grab a skein before I take it to the festival!

Forest green, teal, gold, and plum—the perfect little bit of fall magic. 🍁💜

It’s starting to look a little bit like fall around here. 🍂🍁

The mornings are getting cooler, the colors are starting to change, and I’m definitely not mad about it. There’s just something about this time of year that makes everything feel a little cozier. 🤎

Fall, I’m ready for you.
