Point of View Farm, a Northeast Organic Farmers Association’s Farmer’s Pledge member, is located just outside Bangall, NY in Dutchess County.

"Point of View Farm is home to a flock of purebred registered Finnsheep that rotationally graze on our lush pastures filled with native and planted varieties of grasses, legumes and herbs. Finnsheep are a multi-purpose heritage breed of sheep that are well known for their versatility and efficiency in wool, meat and even dairy production. The breed is naturally polled (no horns) and lambs are born with short tails that do not require docking/ banding. Point of View Farm Finnsheep have been genetically selected for high quality soft crimpy wool with high luster. They have strong maternal qualities, parasite resilience and premium lean tender meat from lambs with fast rates of gain. Point of View Farm Finnsheep are social and friendly with an easy to handle temperament. All this makes them a well suited choice for many operations.

"The Point of View Farm Finnsheep flock is full of rare naturally colored genetics. We offer lambs and fleece in white, light brown, dark brown, fawn (like vanilla creme), black, faded black, light/ dark greys and patterns including piebald and badgerface (also known as agouti blue and light blue). We hope to be importing finnsheep ram lines directly from overseas in the future for valuable new genetic diversity in the US. The original finnsheep from Finland, where the breed originated, were imported to the United States 40 years ago. Currently, Point of View Farm Finnsheep is maintaining a biosecure flock so we can offer the healthiest lambs you can buy.

"SRW_9268Point of View Farm is a member of the Dutchess County Sheep and Wool Growers Association that organizes the New York Sheep and Wool Festival in Rhinebeck, NY each fall, The International Finnsheep Registry, The American Finnsheep Breeders Association, The American Sheep Industry, The Connecticut Sheep Breeders Association and we are very proud to be part of the Northeast Organic Farmers Association’s Farmer’s PledgeTM Program. The Farmer’s PledgeTM is a commitment to a broad set of principles that go far beyond the National Organic Program by addressing labor issues, community values and marketing as well as how the animals are fed (no GMO’s). All our farm practices also meet the standards for Humanely Raised.

"We strive to breed lambs true to the Finnsheep breed standard with excellent health, confirmation, maternal instincts and high quality wool that are hearty and easy to care for with minimal extra inputs. At Point of View Farm, we have very high health and breeding selection criteria. We only select the very best genetics and individuals to be used/sold as breeding stock. Furthermore, our flock is enrolled in the USDA scrapie export program as NY120 with annual USDA inspections and routine sampling to verify the health of the flock/ absence of scrapie."
