The Nostrana sheep, an indigenous Italian breed with roots tracing back to the majestic Apennine Group, embodies the rich agricultural heritage of the provinces of Massa-Carrara in Tuscany and Parma in Emilia-Romagna.

Medium-sized and adorned in pristine white wool, Nostrana sheep grace the rolling hills and verdant pastures of their native landscape with an air of timeless elegance. With males standing at around 65 cm and females at 60 cm at the withers, they epitomize the harmonious balance between form and function.

Bearing testament to their versatile nature, Nostrana sheep are valued for both their meat and wool. Their wool, with its characteristic purity and softness, serves as a testament to the breed's long-standing commitment to quality and tradition. Whether raised for their succulent meat or prized wool, these resilient sheep play an integral role in sustaining the agricultural legacy of their ancestral homelands.

In the picturesque provinces of Massa-Carrara and Parma, the Nostrana sheep symbolizes the enduring bond between generations of Italian shepherds and the timeless landscapes they call home. With their innate beauty, adaptability, and vital contributions to local agriculture, these sheep stand as living emblems of Italy's rich cultural and agricultural heritage.
