Welcome
Proudly farming in North Glengarry
Breeding for Quality not Quantity
Hawk Hill Farm is 100 acres in the heart of North Glengarry Township in eastern Ontario. Being situated on one of the only hills in this area, we have a panoramic view of the Gatineau Hills in Quebec to the north and on a clear day the Adirondacks of New York to the south east. The Scotch River runs through the back of the property. We have been farming here since 1997. Our focus has been on breeding purebred heritage breeds of horses, sheep and chickens. The breeds we have selected are Canadian horses, Partridge Chantecler chickens and Tunis sheep. We have chosen these breeds because of their well-deserved reputation for hardiness, longevity and ability to thrive on a pasture based system of farming. We do sell eggs for consumption and fleeces from our small flock of Tunis sheep. In the fall of 2019, we sold our breeding flock of purebred Tunis sheep. We have retained a small number of sheep for fleece production and to keep our livestock guardian dog employed. In 2023 we ended our Partridge Chantecler breeding program. We are currently using a commercial poultry breed for egg production and will decide whether to return to Chantecler breeding or another hardy heritage breed.
