Welcome

Grandview Polypay is located west of Marshall in southwestern Minnesota. It all started when we purchased our farm – weeds and all. Taking someone’s advice “sheep will eat anything” we purchased 50-bred ewes. They cleaned up the place and we were hooked. Raising sheep offers a high quality of life that reflects our personal values and family farm goals. For over 25 years we have been in the sheep industry.

Small Flock - Big Results

Grandview Polypay

We offer top quality breeding stock and market lambs. As a member of the Pipestone Lamb and Wool Program we've been involved in the leading edge of production management in the sheep industry.  The maternal traits of our flock, based on barn records, demonstrates that our ewes will breed in the first heat, carry condition, and lamb out of season.  If you are interested in improving production in your flock, we can help.

  • A better version of ME for YOU...
    Let’s think back 10 years ago… I’m not sure what your age was, but I was a 3rd grader at Holy Redeemer Catholic School in Marshall, Minnesota. In that one year, I learned a couple things. I learned that if you want to spend an entire week staying in for recess, you should play Mortal Combat with your friends. When working on a sewing project in class, make sure that you know where the needle...
