Hi there,

I'm looking to buy a small house, cabin or piece of land to homestead and relocate my micro flower farm.  Preferably in Vermont (I like the Calais, East Montpelier area) but am totally open to other places.  Looking for good young farmer community, music scene, close to a decent sized town for market opportunities, and quiet location.  Something semi-affordable and not too far out in the boonies would be great.    

 

Please contact me if you have any leads.  

Thank you!

Jenny

I have between 5 and 10 purebred Clun Forest Ewes I am looking to sell. They are from 4 months to 6 years old and will range in price from $250-400. I have not dewormed since I purchased my original flock in 2020. I have really focused on self-reliant sheep that are good at maintaining body condition on marginal pasture. I do supplement with Green Mountain Feeds organic alfalfa pellets in order to move them and through the harder parts of winter as these girls spend winter outside with minimal shelter. They are up to date on their CD&T. All of my adult ewes lambed successfully and raised their lamb without help (even ewe lambs) this year 2023. Only reason I am selling is I am due at the end of this month, and our hay crop was down this year due to flooding. I have already culled fairly heavily in the past three years so every ewe I have now has been selected for health, worm resilience and overall great production characteristics. Would make a great starter flock or addition to an already established "naturally" raised flock. 

We are looking for someone to join our livestock crew. Basic responsibilities include daily livestock chores, egg washing, fencing, moving animals, broiler slaughter, and helping with farm building and cleanup projects. 

We are open to being flexible with hours. Some weekend hours are required.

We are willing to train the right candidate regardless of experience.
