The Romance behind Leicester Longwools

Emily with one of her Leicester Longwool ewes Chelsea

Have you ever looked out into a field full of sheep and they just glistened in the sun and took your breath away? Well….if you look into a field filled with Leicester Longwools that might just happen!

This weeks episode I interviewed Emily Hartman who raises Leicester Longwools in Montana. I loved Emily’s energy and her passion for this breed. Listen to the episode to hear how Emily got interested in Leicester Longwools, her business “Mrs. Hartmans Farmhouse Market”, the love she feels for this heritage breed, and she shares some great advice for new shepherds or for those of us who are looking into raising sheep!

Once you are done listening to the episode make sure to check out Emily’s website: https://www.hartmansfarmhousemarket.com/ . She has beautiful fleeces, gorgeous art batts, and awesome soaps and home gifts!
