We raise Icelandic Sheep, and keep German Angora rabbits. Raising Icelandic Sheep in New England is how we keep our Vermont hill farm open and... entertaining! Keeping a hobby or spinning flock of sheep is surpriisingly easy when you choose a breed like the Iceland sheep. Icelandic sheep breeders in New England not only offer breeding stock, soft wool yarn, fleece and roving.... they offer onfarm clinics for beginners, hands on demonstrations at Vermont Farm Shows, and online stores where you can buy Icelandic fleece, roving, and wool yarn.
