The National CVM Conservancy,
Inc. (NCC)
is a group of concerned breeders,
individuals, and corporations who care about the
future of the most critically endangered breed
of sheep in the United States today.
With purebred registrations
totaling less than approximately 500
individuals, it is imperative that we take this
opportunity to be good stewards of a unique and
deserving national treasure.
CVM/Romeldales are a fiber
artists dream come true. Wonderful fiber with
next-to-the-skin softness that comes in nature’s
bounty of colors. They will never bore you with
their colors and patterns. The breed’s two most
endearing qualities are non-fading wool that
gets softer with age, and easy to handle, great
mothers, and hardy to most environments….a delightful asset to any farm.
Please join us in sharing an
exciting and rewarding journey protecting this
breed. Any of the breeders listed on the
breeders page
will be happy to talk to you and share how
satisfying it is to be a valued steward of the
CVM/Romeldale breed. Your support and participation at any
level will help secure this breeds future.
You don’t have to own
sheep to join us…..just a kind heart.
"...when the last
individual
of a race of living things
breathes no more,
another Heaven
and another
Earth must pass
before such a
one can be again."
