Ledyard Agri-Science

Ledyard Agri-Science breeds Tunis sheep in Gales Ferry, CT, southeastern Connecticut near New London. It has raised purebred Tunis sheep for several years, following breed association guidelines and keeping detailed health records for every lamb and ewe. Lambs are raised on rotational pasture and sheltered in barns designed for seasonal comfort, with early socialization that helps them adapt to varied farm settings.

Teagan Lajoie applies a background in agricultural science to enhance wool density and overall flock resilience through careful breeding selections. Detailed lambing logs and ongoing weight monitoring support steady growth rates, producing stock well suited for fiber and meat markets alike. The farm participates in regional fairs, where its members have presented animals noted for their hardiness and fleece quality. Sheep receive a mix of fresh pasture, hay, and mineral supplements formulated to meet nutritional needs throughout breeding and lambing seasons. Calm temperaments and gentle handling practices make these sheep accessible to both experienced shepherds and those new to small-scale farming.
