"There’s a lot of openness in the agricultural com munity for new ideas and methods.” Felda says the sheep industry is also open to new ideas, and is start ing to recognize the value of dairy as an additional asset. , Felda started out with about 40 sheep, and got her dairy license in 2008. She now runs a herd of 125, though she’s only milking around 70 cur rently. She says she milked 15 thousand pounds of milk last year, but is hoping for more this year with the ad dition of new equipment.

It’s that eastern Oregon diet of bunch grass and sage that Felda says makes her milk the star ingredient in Tin Willows Tomme. “ [B lack Sheep Creamery] noticed a dif ference in the milk, and made a cheese to accent that flavor.

The a b ility to freeze the milk is one thing that separates it from cow’s milk. Unlike cow’s milk, the high number of fat sol ids in sheep’s milk means it doesn’t separate when fro zen, so the thawed product is identical to the pre-frozen version. Since it doesn’t have to be delivered imme diately, it’s more economi cal for the producer. Though she’s hap py with the improvements she’s made, Felda says it isn’t on the scale of most cow dairies. “Most cow dairies have pipelines to carry the milk away, and they’re all computerized. Our technol ogy is lagging behind a few years because most sheep dairies are small opera tions,” says Felda.
