bide a wee farm is located just outside of Newberg, Oregon in the Chehalem Valley, about 25 miles Southwest of Portland, Oregon. We raise Jacob and Navajo-Churro sheep - both listed on the Livestock Conservancy's Conservation Priority List - Jacob sheep as 'threatened' and Navajo-Churro sheep as 'critical'. We've been raising both breeds since 1994 and are just as enthusiastic about them now 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, lean, mild tasting lamb, and colorful sheepskins. Included are brief histories of Jacob and Navajo-Churro sheep, along with sale lists, photos and pedigrees of the adult bide a wee Jacob and bide a wee Navajo-Churro sheep we currently have for sale, and check out our 2024 Jacob Lambs, and our 2024 Navajo-Churro Lambs. For information on our breeding program, including photos of our flock sires, visit our 2024 breeding line up. Both Jacob and Navajo-Churro*
sheep produce lean, mild flavored meat. We sell USDA
inspected lamb
cuts under our USDA prepared meat sellers license
#AG-L1007963PPM. Our lambs are processed at Mt. Angel Meat Company,
an animal welfare approved, USDA
