Old Gjerpen Farm (OGF) is a link to the past
and to the future. Named after the Gjerpen Church in Norway where
Richard's family farmed for centuries, our farm is dedicated to help
conserve rare breeds of sheep, cattle and chickens for future generations to enjoy
and cherish. We specialize in offering small starter-flocks of
genetically diverse, quality Karakul and Leicester Longwool breeding stock
as a way of introducing the importance of heritage breeds conservation to
families, and especially the youth, who can carry on this important
mission. When you select OGF breeding stock, you are buying both
proven quality and our personal commitment to provide professional support
to beginning shepherds. We are happy to provide references.
