Fairy Garden Farm

Fairy Garden Farm, Shetland sheep, Chehalis, Washington, is nestled in Lewis County and the Puget Sound near Seattle. Kristina and Brent Lotz have more than a decade of experience breeding Shetland sheep, maintain active memberships with livestock associations, and follow health protocols that include routine vaccinations and regular parasite screening. They raise each lamb on pasture with daily socialization, gentle handling from birth, and gradual introduction to shearing and hoof care to promote confidence around people. Their flock produces fine fleece valued by local fiber artists for its softness and resilience, and they share insights on fiber preparation at seasonal community events. They practice rotational grazing across multiple fenced paddocks to maintain pasture health, ensure access to fresh forage year-round, and naturally reduce parasite loads.

Visitors often note the farm’s calm atmosphere, the sheep’s friendly demeanor, and the well-maintained barn where lambing takes place. Annual shearing is handled on-site to guarantee clean fleece and minimal stress. Breeding groups are selected for temperament and genetic diversity to support sustainable small flock management and preserve the breed’s traditional characteristics.
