Caring for Sheep and Goats

The Baaa-sics

Learn the baaa-sics of taking care of sheep and goats as a beginning homesteader! Get information on getting started, important things to know beforehand, and a chance to get your questions answered.

Raising sheep and goats can be a common step for beginning or expanding homesteaders, and there is a lot to learn before taking on new livestock. Join Jillian Horan of Central State University to learn about the care and physiology of these animals, while exploring the suitability of each depending on your goals and available environment. This program is a great opportunity for folks interested in homesteading to get any questions answered and to learn some common pitfalls others have faced.

This program will be held at the Dresden Branch Library on Tuesday, December 8 from 5-6 PM. Registration is requested for this event. Please contact our information desk or event facilitator, Hailey Rantz, with any additional questions.
