The love of the land was our motivation to find a place like The Back Forty Farm to call home. Katahdin sheep have been a major part in helping restore the soil and combating brush, and this has greatly reduced the need for chemical sprays or machine-based land clearing. Not only does this make our forest more usable, but provides us with healthier trees, and greatly reduces the available fuel for
a wildfire. The Katahdin was an excellent choice for us and we fell in love with this amazing breed of sheep. They have great mothering traits, Nonshearing (hair sheep), great foragers, and mild-flavored lean healthy meat. We are a small family farm living our dream of raising our own food sustainably and on pasture. We are your local source for whole lamb or breeding stock.
