Let’s meet a producer and floriculturist who’s helping us celebrate National Lamb Month!

February is National Lamb Month! As we continue our celebration, we want to check in with an Alabama farm that is known for everything: flowers, agritourism, backyard chickens, and even Babydoll Southdown Sheep.

Natasha McCrary of 1818 Farms joined RFD-TV’s own Suzanne Alexander to talk about her operation, what makes the Babydoll Southdown Sheep so unique, and the floral aspect of her operation.
