A short farm highlight for one of our farms, , in Warren county Nj:
“Jenny Jump Farm is located in rural Northwest New Jersey. The farm was established in 1991 and is dedicated to preserving Jacob Sheep breed. The name Jenny Jump comes from Jenny Jump State Forest located on the mountain behind our farm. We raise purebred Jacob Sheep for their unique wool, their intelligence and hardy nature.
We focus on providing high quality fleeces, yarn and roving for the discerning fiber artist.”
