About
At Long Wool Ranch we currently raise Wensleydale sheep for their long beautiful wool. It has been an exciting start and we will have our first wool available soon. We are starting with three sheep and breeding up from there. Wensleydales are large so twins are common with minimal lambing problems, so we hope to grow our flock considerably over the next few years. Even with only three sheep we should have a fair amount of wool. Our lambs are barely four months old and have quite long fleece already!
Long Wool Ranch is run by my wife and myself. We live on 5 acres in rural Thurston County Washington (between Olympia and Yelm). We have long desired to get back to our roots and become more self sufficient as we once were. Raising sheep is our first big step toward this goal. We will be taking on other livestock and crops as soon as I can stay home more. we are dedicated to organic and sustainable practices that will create a healthier and hapier life for our family, our animals, and our customers.
Thank you for your interest in our ranch. Check back regularly as we will be updating and adding to our blog and our entire site in the months to come!
