How and when did your sheep journey start? Was is like me, as a child, or maybe from an ag program in school or maybe you have come to shepherding as an adult or even in retirement.
To shepherd sheep well you need skills, tools, techniques, infrastructure and sometimes patience!
Most of all you need passion! I have always loved sheep so I've got passion in bucket loads! All the other stuff has been learning, trial and error, mentors, attending shows and reading. I've never found a dedicated sheep podcast. So... I created one!
This podcast will help you to learn more, know more and achieve more from and with your sheep. This episode sets the scene for 'The Sheep Show podcast'!
