Description
For many years our herd is used for grazing in many areas. Both government agencies, conservationists and individuals make good use of the benefits by grazing animals. The herd consists of approximately 500 Kempen Heath Sheep , 20 Dutch Country Goats , 4 Heath Cows and some geese . This allows us as what each dimension grazing grounds and even the field or orchard to the individual. In Schapenheld you are on the right place for a piece of nature or custom grazing. Schapenheld also provides support services in the field of sheep care at the private home. Your (hobby) sheep and goats are in good hands in Schapenheld.
Besides grazing and nature Schapenheld offers the possibility for active and educational trips. Go to the flock and shepherd on the road and enjoy the most beautiful places in Brabant.

Animals and children is always a big party, especially when this is woolly sheep and goats friendly. Visiting Schapenheld is also a children´s treat of choice. Come during the Lambs Days watching the newborn lambs, perhaps you may even a lamb to feed with the bottle. You can even birthday celebration amidst the sheep. Or see how the sheep took off their jackets during the sheep shaving days with fun activities.
