About Our Farm

Short and Sweet Sheep Farm is a small "hobby" farm on 2 1/2 acres located in

       South Windsor, Connecticut (northeast of Hartford).

• Gussie and Jake began raising chickens and rabbits for 4- H.
  

• One thing led to another and Gussie was introduced to sheep by a former 4-H leader.  We started with two black lambs, a ewe and a wether.  Being impatient for the ewe to mature for breeding we looked into purchasing a mature breeding pair. Our internet search, timing and lucky brought us to Dee & Don Lott in Missouri who were looking for a new home for their flock of 9 Babydoll Southdowns.  We purchased/adopted their 5 ewes and 4 rams and quickly became shepherds!!
