Lesperance Farm

Lesperance Farm, Shetland sheep, New Boston, MI, is located on a family-run property in Southeastern Michigan near Detroit. Stephanie Lesperance has welcomed Shetland sheep for over a decade and follows recognized breed standards with routine health screenings. She maintains detailed records of lineage and health, including annual screenings for common hereditary conditions.

The flock grazes on rotational pastures and is sheltered in a barn equipped for harsh winters. Lambs grow up alongside family activity and develop calm handling responses through daily interaction. Attention to fleece density and natural color patterns supports both hobby farmers and fiber artists.

The farm’s focus on sustainable pasture management also promotes soil health and attracts native wildlife, and local shepherds note the flock’s consistent temperament and sturdy build for small-scale operations. Visitors appreciate the informative tours and seasonal open days that share practical insights into sheep husbandry.
