Three Fates Farm
Three Fates Farm raises Leicester longwool sheep in Crete, IL, in Will County and the Chicago area. Karen Askounis follows Leicester longwool council guidelines, participates in national breed shows and schedules regular health screenings with a local livestock veterinarian.
The flock grazes on rotational pastures rich in native grasses and spends time in a loose-housing barn where daily handling builds calm, socialized sheep. The farm’s lambing shed is kept clean and well-ventilated to support healthy births and early social bonding. Fleeces are sheared and conditioned in on-site facilities designed to preserve staple length and texture.
The farm’s foundation draws on a family tradition of careful breeding, hands-on expertise and a passion for wool quality. Visitors often note the relaxed environment and well-groomed animals as signs of steady, attentive stewardship. Lambs are gradually weaned onto forage blends tailored to support typical Leicester longwool growth rates.
