We are a not-for-profit farmers' network of sheep producers and supporters. Meat, lamb, mutton, wool, cheese, grazing services, fiber art, solar grazing, breeding and show stock: our members offer an array of sheep products and services. 

We are based in Georgia and have members from neighboring states.

Our purpose is simple:

One of the greatest values is the informal member network.  Membership opens the door to  meet other shepherds, see other farms, and learn about different breeds of sheep and production models.  As you become more involved in the association, you’ll find people who are willing to take that early morning lambing call and to share the wisdom of experience.
