A Wild, Wooly Tale About the Establishment of Snake River Acres

Well what can we say other than an FFA project gone wild! It started as an innocent enough venture, with a little bit of coaxing, bargaining, and Kelly convincing her parents that it’s just the purchase of seven ewes… and it’ll make a great school project! “Just,” it turns out, is a loosely defined term.

This seven-sheep adventure which started in 2007 and has evolved into a flock of approximately one-hundred Lincoln Longwool ewes. Located on an old dairy farm outside of Grasston, Minnesota, the sheep are cared for by us, the Froehlich Family: Jamie, Jean, Jennifer, and Kelly. The years raising sheep has been an incredible adventure and ever-changing journey, but the goal has always been the same – to raise happy, healthy sheep while providing customers with high quality, lustrous fleeces.
