Instead of using facebook messenger, please email Lois with questions, [email protected]. 40 years ago we found our lovely piece of property- only 10 acres, all we could afford. Slowly we've built a house, a barn, chicken coop and rabbitry, as well as raised two very wonderful, bright and capable kids here. After years of raising other breeds of sheep, I fell in love with Wensleydales and have found
them to be the perfect fit, and wonderfully adapted to Oregon's climate, mud and all. Since Wensleydales come from the UK, we've used AI over many years to upgrade toward purebred sheep. We are now at 95% and higher Wensleydales and looking forward to a purebred North American Wensleydale flock in the near future. We are one of approximately 30 Wensleydale Sheep breeders in North America. Wensleydales are a very long wooled, lustrous fiber sheep with it's origins going back to 1838 and a famous Teeswater and Leicester ram named Blue Cap.
