Welcome to Violet Hill Farm!

Spring is Here!

Its spring here in Kenucky along with thunderstorms, rain, wind and tornados. But the blossoms are beautiful. The Bradford pear and Redbuds are in bloom while trees are leafing out. And finally temperatures are above freezing!

Besides it being spring, it's also shearing season and cria season. Yes, two new babies joined the herd at the end of March and many more are expected.

So if you love babies, or your kids love babies, now is the time to schedule for visit to the farm. Come shop for Mother's Day, Father's Day and summertime weddings!

Hope to see you soon here at Violet Hill Farm!

Violet Hill Farm is a small boutique farm located in the countryside outside Lexington, Kentucky. This is Blue Grass country, known for its pastures which improve bone health of Thoroughbred Racing Horses as well as fatten alpacas and sheep, and contributes to strong, soft fiber.

The farm is my dream come true - a home in the country, surrounded by wonderful, rich animals and a chance to explore what the earth can create. My goal is to build a farm that raises animals for fiber and soil amendment (manure). I also hope to share this love with others through the bounty of my farm location, and education.

I host visitors of all ages, especially children and young people. At my farm, you'll be exposed and touch livestock and poultry up close. You can see where raw fiber grown on the animal, how yarn is made and what happens when manure is composted. Plus you can get to know the animals, touch them, feed them and learn of their unique personalities.

Plan a visit to meet my menagerie of dogs, cats, alpacas, and fiber sheep. The alpacas love treats and the sheep are always curious. Come introduce your family to the farm and allow me to share my knowledge of gardening, farming, animal husbandry and the agricultural life. This farm is a Climate Smart Wool Producer, a member of Kentucky Proud and practices good soil management.
