Neil Kessler

Neil Kessler provides sheep shearing in Scarborough, Maine, serving flocks throughout the greater Portland area and traveling widely across the East Coast each spring and fall. His route covers New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida.

With a background in animal agriculture and years of hands-on experience, Kessler has sheared thousands of animals, including alpacas, llamas, and goats alongside sheep. He works directly with farm owners to schedule seasonal visits, aiming for a calm, low-stress process for the animals and a smooth day for the people managing them.

For small farms and homesteads with sheep flocks, this kind of seasonal traveling shearer fills a practical need, especially in regions where local shearing help can be hard to find during peak spring and fall demand. His willingness to cover such a broad multi-state territory makes him a option worth knowing about for flock owners along the Eastern Seaboard.
