Welcome to Punkin's Patch at Equinox Farm

We have a small(ish) hand spinner's mixed flock of Jacob sheep, Border Cheviots, Border Leicesters, Cotswolds, and various fine, medium and longwool colorful crossbreds. Buddy, Woolliam, Rebecca Boone, Boudreaux the Biter, Sweet Petunia, Ewen McTeagle, Keebler, Graham Lamb, B. Willard, Count Chocula, Daniel Not-Boone, Hershey, Spud, Murphy, Woody, Blossom, Crazy Maisie, Baaxter Black, Burrnie and the inspirational Renny to name a few. I love to raise bottle lambs and didn't think I'd ever get Liddy out of our kitchen. Mrs. Pepperpot and Muffin helped Biscuit transition to the barn.

Hank, a Pyrenees/Maremma cross, was in charge of farm security with Junior Deputies Miss Tilly aka Weaslie, a Corgi, and Comby, a tough orange cat with a heart of gold. Now retired flock dog Salt is here holding down the fort. Kate, a Border Collie, handles the rush hour traffic. Iris, our first Border Collie, spent her whole life trying to keep all of us in line, but that was a hard job. Her Corgi sidekick was always underfoot and the Adventure Chickens NEVER did what she wanted.
