Overview

Our members represent a wide range of sheep related interests, activities, and experience. Some of our member shepherds manage just a few sheep, and others have several hundred ewes. Some are beginning farmers and others may have 20 to 50 or more years of experience.

Together, MSBA members’ flocks represent some 50 different breeds of sheep (and innumerable crosses). Members may focus on breed-specific show sheep, 4-H club projects, meat, dairy, or fiber production — and many combine several of these. 

Some of our members do not keep sheep at all, but are fiber artists, wool processors, sheep shearers, or enthusiastic fans of sheep and sheep products. The one thing that unites us all is our love of this amazing and useful creature and a desire to be part of a community that shares interest, insight and expertise. All are welcome.
