Firebird Farms

Firebird Farms raises American yak on a mountain property outside Ashland, Oregon, in the Rogue Valley near Medford. The farm got its start in 2014, when the owner began developing a rural property and establishing a small herd rooted in a personal connection to Tibetan culture and a clear-eyed appreciation for the breed's hardiness in mountain terrain.

The farm sits between 4,000 and 5,000 feet in elevation, a landscape of rolling meadows, forest, and steep terrain that suits yak well. That high-country setting is central to how the herd is managed: the animals roam freely on Oregon grasses, live without added growth hormones, and are raised on a rotational grazing plan designed to build topsoil and protect natural water systems.

The breeding program prioritizes diverse bloodlines and selects for fiber quality, size, conformation, and above all, temperament. Most animals are handled from birth, and the farm works carefully to match each animal with the right home. The herd includes a range of phenotypes, from super woolies to lower-fiber animals, reflecting the farm's goal of supporting a broader, healthier yak population in North America. Those looking for American yak for sale in Oregon will find a program built around that same long-view approach to the breed.
