Adopt a Sheep.

Our Adopt a sheep program is finally up and going this year! The Gulf Coast Native sheep are a critically endangered breed that we are trying to help thrive. We are recognized by the Livestock Conservancy as a breeding farm. We have two amazing bloodlines on the farm. Orion’s line consist of the Laddner/Wing bloodlines which are very old lines. The Holt line is also housed at the farm. The Holt line is also one of the oldest bloodlines of the breed.

By adopting a sheep you are supporting that ewe or rams needs with your donation.

All Donations Are Appreciated.

We are a non-profit organization. Your donation can be for a specific event, class, or animal here on the farm. Community is important to us and we love to be able to host events, classes and programs for you all to enjoy and learn from it. If you would like your donation to be for a specific use please reach out to us and let us know.
