This week we'll travel to the western border of England, where Shropshire, Staffordshire, and Worcestershire meet, to learn about the gentle and prolific Shropshire sheep.
Ovinology is still open for business on Teespring and Patreon. PLEASE follow CDC guidelines and make the world a better place by staying home! You can order various sheepy sundries through us, which were inventoried and stored prior to the COVID-19 outbreak and are thus safe.
