Their fleece might not be golden, but Narrow Gate Farm’s dorper sheep have brought home the gold medal several times over the past few years.
Nestled just between Warren and DeKalb counties, Narrow Gate Farm is home to national award-winning registered dorper and white dorper sheep. The farm got its start in 1948 with Danny Jones’ grandparents, Ike and Gelaska Adcock, and was later continued by his parents, Burton and Lena Jones. When it became Jones’ and his wife Penny’s operation in 2008, it took on new life under the name Narrow Gate Farm for the scripture Matthew 7:13-14.
“I thought it was a neat reference to something that is used on the farm, such as a gate, and meaningful scripture,” Jones said.
