Vintage Oak Livestock

Vintage Oak Livestock raises Tunis sheep in East Wenatchee, WA, serving Chelan County and the Columbia Basin near Seattle. Suzanne Jackson holds memberships in national and regional livestock associations to stay current on best breeding practices. She leads the small family farm with detailed record-keeping and thoughtfully selected ewes known for strong maternal instincts. Health protocols include routine veterinary exams, fecal testing, hoof care, and vaccinations to support a robust flock.

Sheep graze rotationally across well-maintained paddocks and retreat to a ventilated barn during extreme weather. Early socialization is encouraged through cottage-style farm visits where lambs mingle with guests and children under supervision. The farm integrates cover crops, native grasses, and periodic soil testing to improve soil health and ensure nutrient-rich forage year-round. Breeding decisions focus on preserving the breed’s trademark wool quality and calm temperament, appreciated by local 4-H members and fiber artists.
