Bridgette Eldridge

Bridgette Eldridge, Cheviot sheep breeder in Winters, CA, serves Yolo County and the Sacramento Valley near Sacramento. She has been dedicated to raising Cheviot sheep for over a decade, participating in local agricultural cooperative meetings and following guidelines set by national breed associations. Her flock undergoes routine health screening, including regular hoof trimming and parasite checks, to meet breed registry standards and promote long-term well-being.

Animals graze on rotational pasture rich in native grasses, and they receive daily handling from a young age to foster calm temperaments around people. Sheltered loafing areas equipped with fresh bedding and shaded water stations support a comfortable environment year-round.

The farm operates on principles of sustainable land management, incorporating cover crops and manure composting to preserve soil health. Attention to balanced nutrition and enrichment activities has earned consistent praise from local farmers for the flock’s wool quality and docile nature.
