Shepherding 201 - Pets to Production

In Shepherding 201, Debbie will talk through the shift from keeping livestock as pets to raising them with a purpose. You’ll explore ways sheep and goats can create income, what goes into choosing a direction for your herd, and the everyday care and planning behind a productive operation.
Key topics include value added products, on farm sales, classes, licensing, tours and more.

This class is for people who already have animals and want to make more intentional decisions, as well as those considering sheep or goats for a small farm. Bring your questions and come ready for a practical conversation about what production can look like in real life.

Everything has a purpose. Let’s talk about how to find yours.
