bide a wee farm is nestled in the lush Chehalem Valley, about
25 miles Southwest of Po
rtland,
Oregon. We raise Jacob and Navajo-Churro sheep - both listed
as 'threatened' breeds on the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy (ALBC)
Conservation Priority List.

as we were when we first started. Both Jacob and Navajo-Churro sheep are terrific
small farm breeds - they're hardy, disease resistant, prolific and multipurpose; supplying
breeding stock, hand spinners fleeces, locker lamb and pelts.
Included are brief histories of Jacob
and Navajo-Churro sheep, along with sale
