Title: Can someone help?
Post by: waterbuffalofarmer on November 29, 2015, 08:49:50 pm

I am going to need a fiesland or assaf tup for next year, there is a guy in monmouthshire  who milks them and produces sheeps milk. Kate humble visited him and did a blog about her experience there, sadly she didn't mention his full name or business, I have been searching up his name/business to see if i could email and ask him. Could anyone tell me his business name, so I could ask him if he would sell me a Tup lamb? I really don't fancy driving all the way to north or the middle of England for a Tup. Could someone please help me?
Thanks

I know him - Joe. Lovely chap. He and his wife Emily and his dad make cheese and other products which they sell localliy. He does a lot of contract shearing, too. I'll think of the name of the farm in a minute.

If you need a backup, I have a flock of purebred Frieslands lambing from April.  But you would have to cross the river Severn to Bristol!
