Whispering Pines Farm
Registered Shetland Sheep
Welcome to Whispering Pines Shetland Sheep Farm located along the historic Erie Canal in the lovely hamlet of Middleport, NY.  We are just a 30 minute drive east of Niagara Falls, NY.
Whispering Pines began in 2001 with the goal of raising and promoting one of the smallest and most primitive British sheep breeds.
We are intentionally limiting the size of our flock so that both our sheep and customers receive the level of attention that they deserve.
If you are looking for a tiny, colorful, friendly, fine-wooled breed, both easy lambers and great mothers, then I am happy to say you have arrived at the right place!
Please feel free to call or email us to arrange a farm visit, we'd love to have you out!
