Welcome to
Wolston Farms, home of Ian
Caldicott and Raven OKeefe, located in Scio Oregon. At Wolston farms we raise
sheep, keep chickens, and train sheepdogs. We care a great deal about our
animals and our land. We take every step possible to ensure that our animals are
happy and healthy.
This area is exceptionally well
suited to raising sheep and training sheepdogs. The climate is very mild so it
is rarely to hot for the dogs or to cold for the people. While we do get plenty
of rain in the winter and spring the grass also grows year round. It is
unfortunately also perfect for a number of sheep parasites.
You may wonder where the name
Wolston Farms comes from. Wolston is a small village in central England where
Ian spent his early childhood. According to local folklore you are only a true
Wolston native if you have fallen in the stream that runs through the center of
the village. At this point you have probably guessed that Ian did indeed fall in
the stream as a youngster and therein lies the reasoning behind the Wolston
Farms name.
