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 as 'threatened' breeds on the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy (ALBC) Conservation Priority List. 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, locker lamb and pelts. Included are brief histories of Jacob and Navajo-Churro sheep, along with sale lists, photos and pedigrees of the adult bideawee Jacob and bideawee Navajo-Churro sheep we currently have for sale. Also available are photos of our 2010 Jacob lambs and our 2010 Navajo-Churro lambs. Both Jacob and Navajo-Churro*
sheep produce lean, mild tasting meat. We've been selling whole locker lambs for
years but since 2009 we've also been selling have USDA
inspected lamb
cuts under our USDA prepared meat sellers license
#AG-L1007963PPM. Our lambs are processed at Mt. Angel Meat Company, a USDA
inspected facility located in nearby Mt. Angel, Oregon, where the meat is aged for 10 to 12 days before being cut. Please visit the bide a wee Store which offers award winning fleeces, colorful pelts, hand felted scarves and commercially prepared roving and yarn for sale. We've also recently added a line of bide a wee farm note cards and horn buttons. For tips and recipes visit our newsletter. For information on our breeding program, including photos of our flock sires, visit our 2010 breeding line up.
