ABOUT THE TONGUE RIVER FARM...
We are located in Pomona near West Plains Missouri in a dairy area in South Central Missouri. The farm is home to one of the largest flock of Icelandic Sheep in the USA.
Our flock has been carefully selected for high lifetime lambing production records, excellent fleeces, and fast growing lambs.Our goal is to introduce this interesting and productive breed to the world, by breeding and selling only the highest quality Icelandic Sheep.
