Rob and Jen own a diverse 25-acre farm in beautiful Woodsboro, MD. They raise Katahdin/Dorper sheep, beef cattle, and chickens. Jen is also growing and selling microgreens to the local community. Additionally, Rob and Jen have been planting 1,000-1,300 Christmas tree seedlings each spring with dreams of helping people make wonderful Christmas memories. They are currently heading into their fifth year of the first phase of planting.
Rob and Jen love to host farm days during lambing season to share with people about life on a farm and are active on social media year-round to do the same. They enjoy sharing pictures of the beautiful sunrises and sunsets that gave their farm its name.
Lastly, they are always trying to learn better farming practices to include regenerative agriculture and organic living. They are eager to meet like-minded people and to learn from those with more knowledge and experience.
