Lambing Season

It's lambing season at the Oregon State University Sheep Center. Barns are open to the public to visit until March 13th. Tours are self-guided (for groups with 12 or more, please contact the OSU Sheep Center: e-mail: lambing.barn@oregonstate.edu). The barns are open daily from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.. More information is available on the OSU web site.

The library's collection includes information about sheep and lambs. Kim Lewis' Little Lamb (Candlewick Press, 2000) shares the story of little Katie, who feeds a newborn lamb milk from a bottle and observes the lamb discover her farm.
