We are the 4th generation to work this family farm located in south central Kentucky. We are nestled at the southern end
of Casey County between Somerset and Russell Springs just off "Old 80" in what is now Amish Country.
My great-grandparents settled here in the mid 1800's. My grandparents worked and cleared most of the land and my parents
continued the tradition. In the words of my grandmother, "always be productive"

Since 2004, my husband, my two children and I have been blessed with caring for the farm and continuing the
farming tradition of my family.
I have been fortunate to live many other places and have other careers. The time I spent in Sales and Marketing and
as a nurse in the Verterinary field has prepared me for this chapter in my life. My heart has always been
in Kentucky and my dream has always been to return to the farm. God has honored our family with making it
possible to live that dream.
Our primary business is wool from our own precious sheep. We currently have a small registered flock of Border Leicesters
and a "premium wool" flock of Border Leicester crosses. It is our goal to produce the highest quality fleece for
the fiber artist. All our sheep are named and members of the family. Wool products only!

The farm is a family affair. In addition to the humans and the sheep, it includes: a flock of mainly Red Star
chickens used for eggs that have free range of the farm during the day, a Quarter Horse named Bill's Cutter Doc (Doc), a Miniature
Donkey named Maggie Mae, 6 cats and 3 dogs. Look for books on the adventures of these characters in the future.
