Our Farm: Visit our Ruit Farm Web Journal for news and photos

Our farm, located on the Pemaquid Peninsula in Midcoast Maine, is home to a variety of critters. We have a growing flock of Coopworth, Coopworth X and Border Leicester sheep, as well as Zorro the guard llama and a mini donkey, Jingle. We also have added 3 LaMancha dairy goats to our farm: Salsa, Sock Monkey and Elf. We are enjoying their milk and making great cheese!

We are part of the Maine FiberArts Tour. Come and visit us; we are open by chance or appointment.

We maintain a tested OPP negative flock.

We now have retail lamb cuts and specialty sausage available. Call us for more information.

We have some wonderful roving and yarns available; most of our sheep are coated, and the fleeces are very clean. Click on the Fiber link to see what's available. We also carry organic cotton sliver and linen yarns. Click to see our Plant fibers.
