Shepherd's Cross is an accredited Agritourism facility, Oklahoma Museum Association member, OK Farmer's Market Hub, and a Made in Oklahoma Company that processes Animal Welfare Approved meat (lamb and beef) as well as fiber (that is chemical free, hormone free, free range, all natural). Shepherd's Cross hosts a mini wool mill, processing wool from their own sheep, raised on site.
Heart of the Shepherd is the non-profit organization (501-C3) that operates at the farm and establishes wool mills in remote, impoverished areas around the world. Heart of the Shepherd teaches Biblical references to the harvest, the animals, farming, and gardening.
Shepherd's Cross and the Farm Store are open Tuesday through Saturday 8:30 - 5:30, year-round (closed some holidays) for drop by visitors or pre-scheduled groups.
