Located on the historic Stephen D. Wheeler Farmstead in the heart of the Coleman Station Historic District (listed on the National Register of Historic Places, 1993), Dashing Star Farm is a family run enterprise.
Starting in 1994, we developed our own unique cross breed of sheep (mainly using the English Romney and Border Leicester breeds) with a distinct palette of natural colors and wool characteristics, while still producing a true multi-purpose animal. We have recently introduced a line of pure-bred Coopworth sheep, developed originally in New Zealand, and Finnsheep, known for the tenderest meat.
We market lambs, yarn, roving, batting, and sheepskins. Additional products include handknit scarves, hats, sweaters, blankets, and layette sets. Al
