Who we are
About the farm
On the Degenerhof in Melle we have been breeding Scottish Blackface sheep, a breed from the Scottish Highlands, as a family farm since 1987; starting from six breeding ewes we have built up Germany's largest registered flock. For almost as long we have farmed organically with continuous certification; our sheep spend about ten months a year on pasture, and we work with performance-bred Border Collie herding dogs. In our farm shop we offer lamb, mutton sausages, salami and ham as well as organically tanned lamb and sheep skins by telephone appointment, and we also sell breeding stock.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
