THE ADOPTION BY ANYWAYS ITALY: ADOPTING A BLACK SHEEP FROM ARBUS – SARDINIA
Its name derives from its color – they are all black, including the tongue – and from the town of Arbus, an area traditionally devoted to the breeding of this sheep. Over the years, this breed was disappearing, but extinction was averted thanks to the determination of some local shepherds who became the guardians of the black sheep of Arbus.
By adopting a black sheep, you will become a virtual guardian, and your sheep will be distinguished by a tag with your name, attached to the classic leather collar.
Thanks to the content you will receive periodically, you can discover the traditional breeding of the black sheep of Arbus and follow the production cycle for an entire year, from milk to cheese, and from wool to its uses in innovative and design products.
