And Mrs. Jorrín's Sheep Farm I have an exceptionally fine Dorset-Fresian cross three year old ram for sale. His grandfather was from New Zealand , imported by Old Chatham Sheep Herding Co. He is $350 Lambs: East Friesian-Dorset-Finn cross breeding stock. The East Friesian line in this flock comes from a sire from New Zealand. Via Old Chatham. The dams are from two prestigious commercial dairies. Most of the mothers are Dorset-Finn crosses. The sires are 50% East Friesian out of William Greenleaf, flock sire. The Dorset-Finn adds a hardy quality to the line. Meat Lambs: 32 - 60 pounds. Larger lambs and freezer lambs raised to order. Ram lambs can be ordered for Al Eid. Starter Flocks: Usually 4-6 ewe lambs plus one ram lamb make a manageable starter flock. Any combination is available. All have 25 to 62 ½% East Friesian in them, enhancing the amount of milk the ewes produce for their lambs. Wild Organic Thyme: This incredible wild herb made me become enchanted with thyme. I've always associated it with packaged poultry seasoning and never truly appreciated it until it began to spread through my meadows. Walking through it created a smell that was positively addictive. A bunch hanging in my larder still smells as fresh as the day I first picked it. It reminds me of the south of France. Maran Chickens: This shall be my first year raising Marans. They are a French breed of chicken and lay mahogany colored eggs. I keep all of my chickens on pasture until winter in portable coops which are moved four times day. They have all of the advantages of free-range birds, however are protected from predators in the portable Chicken Ark. Chicken Arks: Made to order. Please call for information (607) 746-2596 Jam from rouge vif d'temp pumpkins: shall be available in the fall. Its color, a crystal clear orange and its flavor, something akin to an orange marmalade are superb. Organic Wild Blueberries: There are over 500 wild blueberry bushes covering my hilltop. They are the one truly organic product sold on my farm, and are only available for two weeks of the year at the end of July. They are outstanding. Black Currants: I have recently started a 40-bush plantation of black currants and Josta Berries. They make wonderful jam and syrup. The syrup is superb in champagne.
