Ruit Farm North Home

Visit our Ruit Farm Web Journal for news and photos

Our farm, located on the Pemaquid Peninsula in Midcoast Maine, is home to a variety of critters. We have a flock of Coopworth, and Coopworth/Border Leicester X sheep, as well as Zorro the guard llama and a mini donkey, Jingle. We also have LaMancha dairy goats on the farm. We are enjoying their milk and making great cheese!

We are members of Maine FiberArts. Come and visit us; we are open by chance or appointment. Calling ahead of time will make sure that we can connect with you. We have retail lamb cuts and specialty sausage as well as raw fleeces, roving and yarns, many of which are hand-dyed on the farm. Call us for more information. We maintain a tested and closed OPP, CL and CAE negative flock/herd.
