Swallow Lane Farm

Swallow Lane Farm & Fiberworks is a small family farm and weaving studio dedicated to the preservation and promotion of the Jacob sheep. We are celebrating 20 years of providing heritage breeds to Northwest homesteads. We keep a small herd of Nubian goats to supply our family's dairy needs. We sell goat milk soap and lotion. Our daughter has a small herd of colored Angora goats. She sells breeding stock as well as mohair. In 2011, we began raising Tamworth pigs. Tamworths are a heritage breed, sometimes called the Irish Grazer. Unlike modern hogs, Tamworths thrive on pasture and can forage for their meals. They are a bacon-type hog, producing a large, lean carcass with exceptional flavor. At our farm, pigs fulfill their traditional homestead role - utilizing excess milk and eggs, wasted hay, and cull produce, while also tilling and fertilizing new pastures. We will have pilets available soon.
