About the event
Lambing School
Iron Water Ranch is honored to host our annual Lambing School Course as a window into real-life experiences for shepherds during lambing season. This course will be hosted on Saturday, January 31st
from 10AM to 4PM. This class is one-of-a-kind as it happens during our lambing season and is hosted in a bay of our lambing barn. It doesn’t get more hands on than this!
Included in this experience is a binder curated by our very own shepherd team including treatments for common issues, suggested barn layouts, a list of our favorite products, and lots more! Our goal is to provide a safe and fun environment for new shepherds to learn and get experience to handle their own lambing season. Prospective and aspiring shepherds without flocks are just as welcome as shepherds who've had sheep for years but want another perspective on lambing!
