Wooded Acres

Wooded Acres breeds Shetland sheep in Sandpoint, Idaho in the Idaho panhandle near Spokane.

Diana Smith has been raising sheep for several years, following recognized breeding standards and ensuring regular health screenings for parasite control and hoof care. Smith ensures each lamb and ewe undergoes testing for common hereditary conditions in Shetland sheep. Herds graze on open pastures bordered by mixed woods, and lambs experience early socialization through daily handling and interaction with family members. The farm sits on shaded hillsides that support year-round pasture rotation and natural forage diversity.

Their sheep produce fleeces prized by local craftspeople for their softness and luster, often used in handspinning and weaving projects. Wooded Acres maintains transparent records on lineage and welcomes questions about temperament assessments and wool characteristics. Based on community feedback, this breeder is known for consistent care and a calm, approachable farm environment.
