North Dakota Governor Tours Väderstad U.S. Headquarters

North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum recently visited the construction site for Väderstad America's headquarters in Wahpeton, N.D., according to a LinkedIn post.

The company announced in 2022 that it was expanding its U.S. footprint with a new headquarters and manufacturing facility in Wahpeton.

The new facility will be located beside the existing manufacturing facility and parts warehouse in Wahpeton. The mixed-use space will have approximately 44,000 square feet, containing office space for up to 80 employees. The new facility will also include two dedicated training classrooms and an 11,000 square foot exhibition hall to host dealer staff and technician training, customer clinics, and public events.

Sorting Ewes & Rams | Breeding Time On The Farm!

Video: Sorting Ewes & Rams | Breeding Time On The Farm!

In this episode, we’re sorting ewes into their breeding groups and introducing them to unrelated rams. Moving rams between barns always comes with challenges, but once the boys meet their ewes, everyone was eager to settle in!

We also welcome back a returning customer who purchased a Suffolk ram from us last year. This season, she chose a Dorset cross ram, now named Benny, to strengthen her flock’s genetics. It’s always rewarding to see repeat customers who value the quality of our breeding stock.

Arnie then tours the crop fields as harvest season approaches. Despite drought conditions this summer, the crops are looking surprisingly good. We close the day with evening feedings and one last look at the rams with their new breeding groups.

?? Join us daily for life on a working sheep farm, from flock management and breeding strategies to crops, chores, and the everyday rhythm of farm life.
