Welcome to Goat Knoll
An Oregon farm with cashmere goats, sheep and farm products to sell (and tales to tell)

Goat Knoll Farm is our corner of paradise nestled on the east side of the coastal hills just beyond a busy world. The farm (established 1995) is located south of Dallas, Oregon, 20 miles west of Salem. Cashmere goats and Shetland sheep have roamed our hillsides for 25 years years, producing beautiful cashmere and wool as well as trimming up the farm's ample supply of blackberries, scotch broom and poison oak.

Our cashmere goats and registered Shetland sheep thrive on natural forage. We harvest and process their beautiful fleeces to make them ready for spinning or already spun into wonderful yarns for knitting, crochet, felting or weaving.

Products available from our farm include cashmere goats, registered Shetland sheep, cashmere and Shetland wool roving for spinning, cashmere and Shetland wool yarn, kntting kits for creating your own special cashmere or wool garments and sometimes a few handmade items.

Our Next Outing

We will be a participant in the Mission Mill Sheep to Shawl event in Salem on May 4th. We will have animals and products there. Come by and visit. This is our favorite event of the year!
