Many thanks to Bide a Wee Farms and Puddleduck Farms both of Oregon for allowing us to purchase our starter flock.  These sheep have quite a history being the first breed introduced into the United States.  They have wool prized by hand weavers, tasty meat, and good milk production.  We decided upon the breed due to our love of Spanish sheep's cheese - we found out it was made primarily from the milk of the Spanish Churro - the foundation stock for the original Navajo-Churro sheep.  Navajo-Churro are listed as "threatened" on the ALBC list. 

There are so many breeds of chickens it was hard to choose a breed to focus on.  We chose several that were listed as "critical" such as the Buttercup, Sumatra, and White Faced Black Spanish.  We also have several other breeds because they are just so much fun.

We naturally and humanely raise rare breeds of hogs for meat.  Our Heritage hog is called the Tamworth and is prized for lean meat and excellent bacon.  The Berkshire hog is the gourmet's hog.  Internationally recognized as producing extremely flavorful meat - it is known as Kurobuta in Japan and much sought after.

We raise the American rabbit - the rarest of recognized rabbit breeds.  There are approximately 300 breeding rabbits in the United States.  Once prized for meat and fur production we are helping other dedicated breeders re-establish the breed.
