SUMMER IS HERE - WHAT ABOUT SHEEP HUSBANDRY COURSE OR SHOW PREPARATION

2016 National Ryeland ChampionAt Oakberrow we run courses throughout the year and at this time of year we run both sheep husbandry courses - these can be either for the novice sheep owner or someone who is looking at purchasing sheep and wants to learn about the do's and don'ts.

During last month we were truly International with trainees from Zimbabwe and also Germany.

This is also the start of the county show circuit and Oakberrow Ryelands and Greyface Dartmoors will be exhibiting at Devon County Show which starts tomorrow 17 May.  Steve is there with the Ryelands and the Coloured Ryelands which are being judged by Jane Pinches at 2.30pm tomorrow.  Go along and have a chat with Steve.

Our next show is Royal Bath and West Show where there will be a full show team of Ryelands, Coloured Ryelands and Greyface Dartmoors.
