Come learn about the role that Border Collies Poe and Cap play on Morse Brook Farm. Watch the dogs work sheep, learn about the history of various breeds and their roles in helping farm. Morse Brook Farm couldn't do what they do without the dogs! Afterwards, try the farm's maple syrup over ice cream - yum!
Notes:
- Herding events are early in the morning or later in the day so that the sheep and dogs don't overheat.
- GPS sometimes lists location as Putney VT. It's the same place!
Cost: Please consider donating $5 - 10 to help support the farm. No registration necessary.

They have a large sugarbush and 80 acres of open land. They use Border Collies to manage our sheep and provide several events relating to the practice of sheep herding including hosting trials and educational events for border collie handlers.
