Only Time Wool Tell with Jorgiea Raftopoulos

Only Time Will Tell with Jorgiea Raftopoulos on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher | Google Podcasts
 
 
Today on the show, we discussed the art behind the sheep industry with Colorado rancher, Jorgiea Raftopoulos. Jorgiea shares what it’s like to work on her family’s operation, Two Bar Sheep Co., and what she wishes the public knew about the lamb and wool industry. This unique way of life is not as routinely talked about as, say, the beef industry, but it is still very much alive and thriving. There are years of tradition passed down from generation to generation, and Jorgiea shares her first hand experience, and the roles she fits into.
 
The Two Bar Sheep Co. story dates back to the early 1900’s when Jorgiea’s family immigrated from Kaloskopi, Greece, a small mountain village in north central Greece. Northwest Colorado became their home, since the steep, mountain terrain reminded them of their homeland. Two Bar Sheep Co., continues to honor their roots by humanely and sustainably raising Rambouillet-Targhee ewes crossed with Rambouillet and Suffolk rams. Their commercial herd has been developed over 80 years and spans northwest of Craig, with rangeland spreading into Wyoming. Growth has also included adding commercial cattle and goat herds. They continue the family tradition with the same determination and tenacity of those before them in order to provide a high quality product for their consumers.
 
In this episode we cover: 
A day in the life of a sheep herder at Jorgiea’s family ranch, and the unique background that those individuals have.
What Jorgiea wishes the general public knew about the lamb and wool industry. 
The family traditions passed down from each generation, and how the Raftopoulos family clearly communicates with one another.
Easy and delicious ways to cook lamb for the whole family to enjoy!
