Seneca Acres Farm

Seneca Acres Farm, Barbados blackbelly sheep, Germantown, MD, serves Montgomery County and the Washington metro area near Washington, D.C. With years of selective breeding, Maschler balances traditional husbandry with modern animal welfare standards, including health testing for parasite resistance and hoof care. The sheep rotate through well-managed pasture and have access to a sheltered barn where lambs receive daily socialization and gentle handling. Seneca Acres Farm remains family-run, with Maschler personally overseeing each stage from lambing to weaning.

Maschler's approach emphasizes natural hardiness and maternal traits, resulting in flocks with consistent coloration and sound structure. Their sheep often serve as foundation stock for new breeders due to their temperament and uniform quality. Lambs from Seneca Acres adapt well to diverse settings, from small homesteads to larger farms. Visits by appointment allow prospective owners to observe the animals in a calm environment and discuss breeding goals.
