ABOUT US

The Background

In the spring of 2019, we moved from Massachusetts to beautiful Chester County, Pennsylvania. We purchased this gorgeous 10-acre property, with rolling hills and a 300-year-old sycamore tree. We immediately christened the estate 'Sycamore Hill Farm'.

​

That summer, we built a big barn, put up fencing, and ran water lines. Shortly thereafter, 5 fainting goats and a Jersey steer took up residence. 

The first sheep (3 ewes, 1 ram, and 1 wether) were on farm that autumn, and in April 2020, we had our first crop of spring lambs.

​

The hayfields have been seeded, limed, and fertilized, and in June and July 2020, we baled up our first harvest of hay. It's a joy and a comfort to feed our animals lush pasture, and then to have hay from our own land to nourish them through the winter months.

​

We will continue to improve the Shetland sheep breed, and strive for fine fleece and sturdy, proper confirmation in accordance to the 1927 standards.
