Why Sheep?  The difference is in the milk...

Many customers are surprised to learn that we milk sheep.  Throughout the ages, sheep have been prized not only for their wool but also for milk. Sheep milk is much richer than cow or goat's milk.  It contains more protein, minerals, and healthy fats making it an excellent choice for cheesemaking.  The milk is also much more easily digested with few allergenic properties.  Our sheep milk is consistently sweet and nutty because the sheep are picky eaters, avoiding the weeds while picking out tender grasses and clover.  Sheep milk cheeses, including Roquefort, Pecorino, Manchego, and Feta are renowned the world over for their exquisite flavor and variety.
