Shetland Flock Book Trust

About

Shetland Flock Book Trust is setup to promote & protect our native Shetland sheep breed. We showcase the breeds importance as part of our heritage. The roots of all our sheep farming flocks in Shetland start with the 'Shetlands' we are encouraging new members to join our working group and we hold an annual Show and sale of members sheep where only members can sell their top quality Rams and these are passed by 3 of our Trustees to be able to be put through this particular show and sale. We attend the Royal highland Show annually, play a big part in Shetland wool week, we hold open days at local farms with a great turnout and all ages are in attendance, we invite different sponsors along to showcase their products and we have become a more open networking group encouraging new thoughts and ideas from members and as a result we are pleased to see new flocks joining our group increasing interest with younger breeders and hoping to increase bloodlines within our Shetland sheep flocks
