Foxmoor
Farm is located in the hills above Silverton, Oregon. We are a
small breeder who for ten years has bred to produce larger colored
cashmere goats with length and even style of fiber suitable for both
spinning and weaving. Our herd is a show herd with several show
winners who have won in both fiber and breed fleece contests.
Descended from import bloodlines, our goats have short guard hair and
produce a cashmere fiber that is 21/2
- 3" long with coverage over the entire body. We hand comb
and hand de-hair our cashmere fiber to ensure a quality fiber from
start to finish. Our excess fiber is sold annually at a booth at
the Black Sheep Gathering in late June and a few of our show fleeces
are available after the fleece show at the Oregon Flock and Fiber
Festival in September.
We have just begun raising
angora rabbits to blend their fiber with the cashmere for a different
luxurious yarn. We have a
small rabbitry with both colored German and English Angoras.
