You’re invited to a farm tour and a sheep farming 101 session at Nine West Farms near Codette, Saskatchewan! If you’re curious about sheep farming – or just want to check out what your local farmers are up to – join us for the event.
While sheep are the heart of their operation, Taylor and Joel of Nine West Farms have also explored laying hens, cut flowers, and market gardening. In 2019, they brought home their first 30 sheep, and since then, their flock has expanded to around 100 breeding ewes.
During this tour you’ll have a chance to:
- Explore Taylor and Joel’s sheep farm and learn about starting and managing your own flock
- Hear about lessons learned from their six years of sheep farming
Whether you’re planning your first lambing season or simply love the idea of life on the land, all are welcome at Nine West Farms.
WHEN: Saturday, July 26, 2025 | 10am – 12pm
LOCATION: Treaty 6 Territory | Nine West Farms | Codette, Saskatchewan
