Joel & Carleen Weirauch raise their small flock of dairy sheep on 50+ acres of Certified Organic pastures in Petaluma, California for the farmstead seasonal production of a raw, aged sheep cheese and a sheep milk soap. Year round, they also produce organic cow cheese made from Jersey milk they purchase from a small, certified organic, family-run dairy located in the same town. The Weirauch's green, micro-scale USDA Certified Organic Creamery (facility where their cheese is made) is located on the same property where they reside with their 2 cats and flock of sheep. Their sustainable farming practices includes: rotational pasture management, green building, wash water re-use for irrigation, and solar. Their sheep milk products are Animal Welfare Approved (www.animalwelfareapproved.org).
