Kim and her husband were gracious hosts. They escorted us to a great camping spot with views of the foothills. We loved the tour of the farm and learned a great deal about the various sheep (milk or meat). Loved the cheese and sheep milk tasting.
Sheep Mountain Creamery in Helena, MT
From the ranch to your table, we ensure our sheep are healthy, disease-free and raised with all-natural feed. Our animals are grass fed as nature intended; they eat no grain products (no GMOs, no antibiotics, no artificial hormones, no steroids, not fed animal by-products) and receive all-natural protein, vitamin, and mineral supplements as needed to ensure strong healthy bodies for breeding, birthing and safe nutritious products to your table.
After over 10 years of research, visiting several farms and creameries we broke ground. Construction took about 19 months; the majority of the building was performed by the Ashmore Clan – Jim, Kim, Cobra & Haiden – with help from other family and friends.
We now have a fully operational sheep creamery, producing pasteurized milk for human consumption and a variety of cheeses. We also continue to have our lamb meats and sausages.
In May 2018, we received our certifications and licenses to begin milking our ewes and producing cheese, several flavors of “Ewe Squeaky Cheese and a verity of Bryndza (Feta cheese). These are categorized as “soft” cheeses which are only a 24-to-48-hour aging cheese. We do make some aged cheese and hope to make more very soon. As we have grown, we have consigned our sheep to another dairy, so they do the milking for us and we have more time to make other cheeses. The milk is frozen when we bring it down and process for milk and cheese (Sheep milk is the only milk that USDA has authorized to be frozen and stored up to 1 year to be processed into product). We then pasteurize the milk to make into cheese or bottle for human consumption. Freezing does not affect the cheese-making or bottling of milk. This allows us to pasteurize milk and make cheese year-round. (This is not possible with cow or goat milk.) In a couple years we hope to be able to produce more hard aged cheese which requires from 6-18 months aging in a cool moisture-controlled cave.
We are incredibly grateful for the support and return of our customers and others to add lamb meat and sheep milk and cheese to your long-life journey for healthy living.
Our Ranch and Creamery is open to the public for reserved tours only. Tours are given March through October. We have Individual, Family and Group Tours. You will enjoy a guided 1 ½ hour tour of the ranch and creamery, including a unique barn set-up, learn about Sheep and the different Sheep breeds we work with.

We believe the good health chain begins with the source of our food, in this case the animal for meat and milk products. By not feeding our sheep grain or GMO feed (i.e., rye, corn, sugar beets, silage), our animals are virtually unable to develop the dangerous levels of e-coli in their systems that grain-fed animals experience. Plus, the threat to our sheep of contracting diseases is greatly reduced because they are not fed animal by-products. This helps us provide safe lamb meat to your table.

Kim and Jim were amazing!! I truly had a wonderful time and learned so much. I recommend this to everyone!!
We arrived around 4 pm and were met by Kim who escorted us to our parking area. They have “Welcome” folders with all kinds of sheep and lamb info. They go above and beyond, so kind, great products and a learning experience. 5 stars Harvest Host Our view for the evening with cell service too.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at KJ’n Ranch. We were greeted by Jim who escorted us to our parking spot and gave us a welcome packet containing information about all the sheep and animals on the property. We joined them for the informative tour, concluding with a cheese tasting. The sheep milk and cheese were extremely tasty and have many added benefits over cow products. We highly recommend this Harvest Host!
Love the cheese! This location worked great for us on our return trip from Glacier. Beautiful location. We purchased some cheese and lamb sausage. Very friendly hosts!
Communication was easy, including great directions to find the farm. I toured the farm and tasted all sorts of cheese. Prices are great and the cheese even more delicious! Highly recommend
Our first HH experience. Really enjoyed it. Love the milk and cheese and the getaway.
This is an awesome Harvest Host! We called last minute; Kim was in town but rushed to meet us. She gave us great directions (but Goggle maps worked fine also) and lead us to our spot. The RV parking was in a secluded part of the ranch, it was pull through and we could run our generator. The barn and creamery tour with Jim and Kim was educational and the cheese and milk samples were great. Stock up on the cheese, Kim makes her own artisan cheeses, and they are incredible! I wish I’d gotten more. We will try to return in the fall or spring when they have lamb in the freezer.
Kim & Jim were amazing! They met us and showed us where to park and we were the only ones there, which was great! We had the sunset and sunrise views! The welcome folder we received was a great way to share their history and I loved ready about their sheep and dogs too. The tour was fantastic, the cheese tastings were great, and my husband loved the sheep’s milk. We have been on the lookout for more! They are a hard-working couple, and I was impressed with their business savvy! They definitely have the Aloha Spirit and a PASSION for what they do!
Jim and Kim are wonderful hosts with a great parking area. We really enjoyed the tour and learned a lot about sheep. We bought some sheep milk and several packages of cheese. Beautiful location and very peaceful! Thank you again for being such great hosts and hope to see you again someday!
What a great stay at KJ’n Ranch! Interesting and very informative tour. Sampled and purchased several of their cheeses. And the newborn lambs… adorable! Thanks Kim and Jim for your hospitality.
Kim & Jim were wonderful hosts. our spot was so private we loved it! We learned so much and got to taste wonderful cheese and Sheep’s milk. Take the tour👍
Kim and Jim are very nice, and the cheese is tasty. Loved the milk. Our campsite was wonderful – secluded with lots of space for my dog to be off leash and happy. Unfortunately, it rained before we got there and the night we were there, and we didn’t quite make the turn to get out of our campsite. We were stuck in a bad way. Completely our fault. Jim went above and beyond to help us get out. He was so gracious about the whole thing. Would definitely stay here again – in the dry season.
All that’s already said about congeniality of Kim & Jim, and in-depth sheep info. You won’t regret your stay here on this Montana hill ranch; enjoyed the unique experience with cheeses and milk. As mentioned though, the dirt paths can get muddy, and it did rain for us–a minor issue.
I stayed here the evening of May 12th, 2021. Kim and Jim were very accommodating and led me to a very nice spot on their acreage that was isolated and wonderful. We spent almost an hour talking about their operation and I got introduced to a new type of sheep I had not heard of before – Dorpers! They are native to South Africa and have mostly black heads. There were several cute lambs jumping and running around. They also have sheep that provide milk for human consumption and it is very tasty. Be aware that both Google maps and Apples maps will not direct you to the correct location. When you call Kim will give you directions and someone will be by the entrance from the road to direct you in. Be sure to have pencil and paper handy.
Kim handed me a folder with lots of good info about their sheep and the products they have for sale. The milk comes in little square quart size containers that fit perfectly into my RVs refrigerator. I also bought some lamb chops and sausage.
Overall, it is a very nice experience, and I would stay there again.
Kim & Jim met us at their driveway to show us where to park. Kim presented me with a welcome folder full of great information about their farm, the sheep, the dogs, what they sell, and local businesses utilizing their products. They are super friendly hosts. Jim guided us into our spot for the night. It was private and level on a cleared area of the farm. We chatted for a while before they left us to settle in. I bought a selection of meat and cheese. We met four new puppies and the lambs, so much fun. After a quiet and restful sleep, I cooked some of Kim’s maple/ginger sausage–her own recipe. It is delicious. Kim gave us a detailed tour of the creamery and answered all my questions. Interesting. We even sampled some sheep milk and are surprised by how delightful it tastes.
A quiet retreat near Helena in Montana. Well worth the stop, particularly if you enjoy lamb or want to try sheep milk and cheese!
Loved the baby sheep and the puppies. Very informative tour and cheese tasting. We would have stayed another nice GHB, but snow was predicted.
Jim and Kim were gracious hosts. Kim met us at the end of their driveway. Jim showed us to our spot nestled among the trees then we attended the tour. Jim and Kim really are proud of their operation. It is top notched. Great homemade cheeses and sheep milk. If you are in their area, please stop and enjoy their hospitality.
This was such a wonderful stay! Kim and Jim are so incredibly friendly and welcoming. We got in after dark and had no idea how beautiful the landscape was until the next morning. What a fantastic surprise! Make sure to bring plenty of cash with you too, because you’re going to want to buy everything they sell, and they only take cash and check. Kim makes the best cheese I have ever eaten! Seriously! We will definitely be staying here again when we come back through!
We arrived and Kim and Jim escorted us to our campsite. We had a wonderful and very educational tour given by Jim. At the end of the tour, we were able to buy a variety of cheeses. Another highlight was being able to see the 9 Pyrenees puppies which were adorable. Thank you for a great Harvest Host experience and stay.
Great place to stay, we had the place to ourselves. Kim and Jim are extremely nice and go out of their way to make it a very enjoyable learning experience. The cheese tastes wonderful, wish we bought more. Thanks again K&J, we had a fun day. P.S. wish we could have taken all the puppy’s home with us.
This is our first HH experience and we absolutely love our visit and stay at the ranch! Kim and Jim are so welcoming and hospitable, they made our experience extra memorable. Upon arrival, K&J greeted us at the driveway and recommended a few spots where they think we’d enjoy to camp. We picked an open field spot and had amazing views of the sunset and sunrise, and the starry night sky. We toured the ranch and creamery, got to meet the sheeps and the Pyrenees puppies. K&J are so knowledgeable and innovative, and we really enjoyed learning about their animals, their operations and vision for the future. Another highlight of our stay was the meat and dairy products offered for purchase at the Ranch. We got ground lamb and some cheese and made the best lamb pasta for dinner. We also love their sheep milk as they add so much more flavor to coffee and tea than creamers/cow’s milk (not to mention that they are more nutritious) All in all, we would definitely visit K&J’s again should our future travels brings us close to this area.
We stayed here a week ago and had a blast. The owners were kind and very accommodating. They gave us an educational tour with a very generous sample of cheeses at the end. Let me tell you, the cheeses and milk are surprising. Best food we had all trip. We grabbed some lamb burger and soup bones for the road. The space for the RV was perfectly level… Better than any of the paid spaces we had at RV parks, and it was private with excellent views. We would stay here again.
I was met by Kim at the end of their road so that I would not miss it. Of course, I went right past and waved at her! She escorted me to my campsite in the middle of the pine trees. They space the campers out so everyone has their own little piece of heaven all to themselves. The tour and cheese tasting are well worth the $20. Very educational and we got to see and pet the new litter of Pyrenees pups. Kim and Jim s path to sheepdom and their plans for the future are amazing. If you are anywhere near Helena don’t miss this harvest host stay!
We stayed Friday, September 11 and have to URGE you to stay at KJ’n Ranch! Kim and Jim, along with Hayden and Cobra, are the most personable folks we have met along our travels! We took the tour of the creamery operations and learned so much about the sheep, their milk, the meat, and the different cheeses Kim crafts! (Oh, the Garlic Basil cheese…!). Do yourself a huge favor and stay here – parked on top of the ridge with astounding views of Big Sky Country!
Kim and Jim were great! We arrived much later than intended due to traffic in Yellowstone National Park and then a flat tire, but they were very accommodating and even came and met us at the end of their long driveway so we wouldn’t have trouble finding them in the dark. They had a wonderful, perfectly level spot for us in a private little area on their land. It was very peaceful, and we slept great. In the morning we bought some lamb to take with us for dinner the next night. We unfortunately didn’t have time, but they also offer to give you a tour of their creamery which sounded fun. Really nice people would highly recommend staying with them if you are coming through the area.
We are actually here right now, just finished up with the tour. Kim and Jim are VERY accommodating and knowledgeable. Many thanks and hope to make it back one day!
Kim and Jim are very welcoming hosts. Kim is a wealth of information as we learned interesting facts about sheep. We sampled and bought some cheese and meat and then settled into our lovely camp spot. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay for our first time with Harvest Host.
We highly recommend staying with this lovely family! Kim and Jim greeted us and helped us get settled, gave us a tour of the barn, educated us on the animals, and served a tasting of their milk and artisan cheeses. They thought of every detail!
Wow! What a great time. We learned a lot. Kim and Jim are knowledgeable. Nice quiet lookout for the night. Based on Kim and Jim’s recommendation, we stopped at the Sunflower Bakery the next morning. Quiche, maple pecan roll, sourdough cinnamon roll and loaf of sourdough bread. Our whole experience was fun and all our goodies so tasty. Thank you.
Quite great location boondock style accommodation. We had a quick morning tour learned a great deal about these folks building ranch life. Bought craft cheese ground lamb and lamb chops. Chops were awesome had them for supper just know. I recommend visiting these folks if the chance comes. We will be back. My wife and I recommend any of the products Kim & Jim put out.
We spent the evening June 20th at the Ranch. I just cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience! Kim met us at the main road and led us to very private HUGE area that was ours alone for the evening. We met her and several other HH guests for a tour and tasting. Everything was delicious and we were sorry we did not have more cash! The owners have embraced HH guests and have gone above and beyond to create a delightful experience! We have stayed with many hosts and KJ’n Ranch (pronounced Cajun Ranch) is in our top 5!
Jim met us at the entrance of their property and took us to a great level spot with plenty of space and great views. We then met up with him and Kim to learn about their ranch and their creamery. They were so knowledgeable, and we learned a lot. Afterwards we were able to try some of their delicious cheeses and purchase fresh sheep’s milk and ground meat. Looking forward to making some meat balls stuffed with their garlic squeaky cheese. Thanks for the lovely peaceful stay!
Hosts were very accommodating to our three-trailer party. They met us at the road and guided us to our parking area. We visited their production area where the ewes and lambs were in, due to the inclement weather. Tasting of their cheese caused all of us to purchase not only their delicious cheese but lamb chops too. If you haven’t tried sheep cheese (that is made in-house) you’re in for a treat. K & J were very accommodating. If we are ever back this way, we’ll hope to stay again!
Hosts were very nice. The parking space was nice and private. Very peaceful. Purchased some milk, cheese, and meat from them. What we’ve tried so far is very good and we look forward to trying the rest of the stuff.
Kim and Jim have a great farm with wonderful cheese. The tour was very interesting and educative, and we had a big variety of cheese for tasting. The dogs and sheep are so cute and the atmosphere us very inviting. Kim helped us to reserve a place in a great restaurant and allowed us to stay another night! Great hosts!!
What a great place to stay near Helena. We enjoyed the lovely vista and the lamb products from the hosts. FYI- when we were there, all of the meat was frozen. So, plan carefully if you want to try their meat while staying. Great hosts. Great stay!
This was our second stay at KJ’n Ranch and Creamery. Wonderful people! Loved the tour and learning about their sheep, meats, and cheeses. The sheep milk is fantastic and did not upset my stomach. Purchased lots of product from them. Hope to visit again! Thanks so much!!
Wonderful property to visit! Great hosts, beautiful scenery, fresh air, and excellent products to purchase! Kudos to Jim and Kim who work so hard to make their business a roaring success! They give a highly informative presentation at 5 pm, so make sure you don’t miss it! If you’re passing near Helena, this is the place to spend the day!
Very hospitable hosts. Kim and Jim met us on the road and showed us to a spot. Other RV’s more than 100 feet away. The presentation was very interesting. We learned about raising sheep, tasted great cheeses and sheep milk. Highly recommend this Harvest Host experience.
We loved our stay at KJ’n Ranch. We learned so much about sheep milk and milk products on the tour and were able to sample milk as well as several cheeses made in house. Delicious! We had a nice spot to park for the night, including a view of the valley. Nice hosts, interesting information. Besides cheese and milk, we also bought a rack of lamb and shish-ka-bob meat. We look forward to consuming all these as we continue our trip!
Kim and Jim are certainly the dynamic duo! They do it all from Barn to Table with their rich delicious sheep milk products like creative artisanal cheeses and freezable milk for those lactose-intolerant REAL milk lovers. It was a very interesting tour with samples and I left with a greater understanding and appreciation for what they do and what they sell. I would return and buy more cheese!
Hubby and I loved our stay with Kim and Jim. The tour of their sheep farm was interesting, and their cheese and milk was delicious!! I made an egg burrito this morning and added the basil and garlic bryndza cheese. Yum! Kim and Jim had the most amazing spirit and absolutely love what they do. Great host and wonderful stay! Their driveway is a tad bumpy and dusty, but just keep your speed down and you’ll be fine. Enjoy!
Kim and Jim took me in last minute during this especially hot and hectic summer season and I so appreciated it. They are wonderful folks with some beautiful working dogs and several flocks of both meat and cheese sheep. Purchased some ground lamb for meatballs and soup bones for some scotch broth. Thank you for a peaceful night‘s sleep.
Our stay at KJ’n Ranch was wonderful and tour was very interesting! Would definitely stay again! This review is visible on your profile page so other members can learn more about your business. Reviews are extremely important in helping members decide where to stay, so keep up the good work!
This was an awesome stay! Our host met us at the end of the road and guided us to our site for our camper. After staying the night, we were given a tour of the farm the next morning. It was very intimate and informative. We were even able to sample the sheep milk and cheeses at the end of the tour! We then bought some of the products, including the hefeweizen sheep cheese which was excellent. There was also plenty of room to walk our two dogs on the ranch. Highly recommend.
Interesting stay at KJ’n Ranch and Sheep Creamery near Helena, MT. We learned about the different sheep and sampled sheep cheeses and sheep milk. The sheep milk was very similar to whole cow milk, but sweeter. The sheep cheeses were delicious and several were purchased to take with us. First real night boon docking went very well, and the crisp morning listening to the roosters crowing as the sun came up brought back memories of living on the ranch as a kid. Definitely worth the stop.
This was such a great HH stop! Our kids (1 and 3 y.o.) absolutely loved the sheep. And we loved all the sheep cheeses and milk! Tired them all and walked out with a big bag ;)
Owners are super nice, very responsive and even met us at the entrance to show us to the spot.
Our campsite was large and pretty leveled. They were overbooked but still had plenty of privacy between all the RV’s
Our Hosts Kim & Jim were awesome!! Very organized and helpful as they assisted in parking us and handed us an information folder that was very informative. Enjoyed the tour and the presentation of the process they had to go through to get started to how they are managing it now. What a great, peaceful, and scenic place to stay!! The areas they had us all in, (3 campers total here), were fairly level and so roomy. Couldn’t see the others where they were parked. Bought some milk and cheese and only a pack of ground lamb as they were sold out of a lot of other meats, but hey, business is good! We will plan to stay when we pass through here again!! Thanks for making this a great place!!!
Wow….what a great stay we had (myself and 3 daughters) with Kim and Jim! We arrived a little late due to a rigorous travel schedule and were met with a smiling and helpful. After letting us know we had missed the tour Jim proceeded to give us one anyway. So thankful that he did because it was both informative and interesting. Kim joined us in the barn and her passion for making sheep milk products was evident and shined through in the samples they had ready for us. We purchased several cheeses and some of the most delicious and creamy milk I’ve ever tasted! We‘ll be ordering more via the phone or website they’re working on (where do they find the time?). Definitely returning here whenever we’re in Big Sky country!
It was spectacular, secluded, picturesque and quiet parking spot. the highlight of the stay was the informative information of their operation on their tour. Jim met us at the entrance with a pamphlet and a smile. They had sold out of some of their meats and sausage though we did purchase a neck, cheeses, and milk. Yummy tastings! Definitely a GREAT visit!
Stayed here last night. It is spacious, private, and quiet. Beautiful views and Kim and Jim are gracious hosts. Their tour is very informative. I had no idea there was that much that went on behind the scenes. We purchased their cheese and milk, and it was absolutely amazing!

We stayed here in July and it was one of the best places to stay. Out in the middle of the woods and just beautiful. Kim was extremely knowledgeable about the sheep and all the processes of raising them to making cheese. We got to even try sheep’s milk which was better them cows or goats. Love talking with Jim and Kim and hope to stay there again someday.
Kim and Jim,
Thank you so much for allowing us to stay at your ranch and for the fun and entertaining education on the raising and farming of sheep and the milk/cheese you serve! We loved our stay and if we are ever up your way again, we would love to stay with you! Thank you again!
We stayed with Kim and Jim for one-night last week. What a treat. Jim leads you to a unique, separate spot on their ranch, where you park for the night. They provide you with an informative packet about their operation and their animals. At 5:00 Kim gives a most enjoyable overview of “Life on their ranch”, how the sheep and lambs are raised, how the milk, cheese and meat are produced. Inclusive of getting up close to their animals if you choose. Then it’s back to your “site” for a quiet, restful night. Highly recommended. Many thanks Kim and Jim!
What an enjoyable stay on this farming property nestled in the mountains of Helena, Montana! We had a spacious area for our rig with the sound of bleating sheep in the distance. The tour was very informative, and we loved sampling the sheep milk and cheeses. Very thankful for this hardworking couple being Harvest Hosts!!
Stayed here august 3 for one night. Very nicely greeted by host and directed to great parking spot. No question this is a farm. Enjoyed a really great tour the following morning – allow 2 hours very worthwhile!! Learnt so much about sheep milk and the intricacies of developing this business – looking after sheep and making product! Thank you – recommend a stay without hesitation.
Kim and Jim were gracious and wonderful hosts! All the spots are very spread out on their land and the views are beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed the sheep tour with tasting, their sheep cheeses are so delicious!! Can’t wait to stay here again and get more cheese.

Our stay here could end up being one of the top-3 highlights of our week & a half MT vacation. Kim and Jim are super friendly & gracious hosts. The scenery / setting is amazing. 180-out camping experience compared to most sardine CG’s & or the parking lot spaces of a lot of HH locations. The stargazing here is great too.
For the $20 tour you get an education, some wonderful artisan cheese sampling, get to sample their milk (which is truly amazing), get to see (& touch if you want) the farm’s animals.
Did I mention how awesome the setting is?….. amazing!
We ended up buying some cheese & lotion; would have bought sausage if they hadn’t ran out.
P.s. Thank Jim for his service to our country while you’re there. He & his family have sacrificed a lot for us during his extensive time in the military.
This was our first Harvest Host experience, Jim was very sweet, the place is beautiful, and we enjoyed a magical sunset dinner outside our RV, a clear starry night sky and shooting stars. upon our arrival we made it just in time for the end of the tour and enjoyed the cheese tasting, meeting the sheep and the dogs, got some delicious sheep cheese that we have been enjoying the rest if our journey. Thank you for a unique experience!!
Great stay! The spots were pretty level, they were open and had plenty of space around them. Separated from other campers and easy to get in. Dirt roads with some bumps once you get to the ranch but paved up until then.
Kim gave us great directions prior to arrival, Jim was a great tour guide, and their grandson Hayden gave us the intro spiel like a pro.
The tour was also very educational! The cheese tasting was delicious. Highly recommend this stay.
Exceeded our expectations in every way. Kim and Jim were excellent hosts, and the area provided to camp was secluded with beautiful view of hillsides and mountain. The best part was them taking the time to educate us on sheep ranching and making milk and cheese. Lots of hard work to make it happen so people like us can benefit from local, healthy products. The cheese and milk we purchased was delicious and nice treat. We spent $40 for a 5-star retreat!
Kim and Jim were incredibly welcoming and kind! It was a pleasure to stay on their farm! It was educational and interesting learning about the sheep. Wow! We didn’t realize that we now like sheep milk more than cow’s milk! The sheep cheese is great too! Thanks again Kim and Jim!
We loved our stay here! Jim and Kim were gracious hosts. We did the farm tour and bought some delicious sheep’s milk and cheese. Thank you so much!
Wonderful scenic area to camp. Kim gave us a tour of her sheep farm. Very fun.
Despite strong winds, we were cozy in a private spot on this beautiful property. Kim and Jim were very welcoming, and the newborn lambs entertained with their little voices and antics. A fascinating look at life on a creamery. We came home with some nice treats.
The tour was really informative, the cheese and milk were delicious. the property is gorgeous!
Traveling with another couple and this was one of our best stops. So peaceful and kind people. We stayed June 17-18 and the next day they were moving into their new home which looked amazing. We were hooking up with friends for dinner so did not get to do the tour but were able to buy wonderful meats and cheeses.
I’ve been living in the west for nearly all of my life. I thought I knew about sheep, but Kim opened my eyes to the world of sheep dairy. I’ve never met someone with a deeper passion for their cause. This stop is a must. I don’t care if you live 1000 or 10miles away. We came from Bozeman(90miles) just to get away for a night. We stayed in the lower loop, nearly secluded from everything else, yet maybe 200 yards away from the sheep barn. Kim gave us a wonderful background of sheep dairies, the health benefits, and challenges. A short drive to Marysville “ghost town” for a side trip. I highly recommend this stop, even if you’re not into sheep, you won’t be disappointed. And oh! The sheep milk. ❤️
This was a wonderful stop on our way east. Kim and Jim are very personable and helpful. Their property is spacious and scenic. They have a wealth of knowledge about all aspects of raising sheep: meat, cheese, milk, wool, etc. which they ably shared during the informative tour. We enjoyed a cheese tasting and bought some sheep’s milk which makes excellent coffee creamer. And the spring lambs were adorable.
