Welcome to ActiveLife Farm
ActiveLife Farm is situated southwest of Folly Mountain in Colchester County, Nova Scotia, and is home to a flock of registered North Country Cheviot sheep, heritage breeds of poultry, dairy goats for goat's milk soap and working border collies.
We also maintain a flock of Cheviot sheep on an island in southwest Nova Scotia.
The home flock of sheep are raised primarily on pasture. A pastured free-range system contributes to a healthy, stress-free lifestyle for animals. The island flock thrive on grasses, kelp and seaweed throughout the year.
Border collies are raised and trained at the farm, adhering to a traditional relationship between shepherd, sheep, and dog. They are useful for moving the home flock from pasture to pasture and essential for gathering sheep on the islands.
We offer-
- Heritage breeds of chicks from March to September.
- Sheepdog training lessons for border collies and their handlers
- Registered North Country Cheviot lambs for breeding stock
- Freezer lamb is available from autumn to springtime
- Lamb and kid jackets can be supplied and are made to order
