About Jenny Jump
Farm
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.
Handspinners love their fleeces. Great care is taken to raise
healthy fleeces through good diet and use of sheep coats to keep the
keep the fleeces clean and free of vegetation. The flock is raised
with minimal use of chemicals and antibiotics. My flock is certified
as scrapie free by the USDA Voluntary Scarpie program in 2004. Our flock is registered
by the Jacob Sheep Conservancy (Jacobsheepconservancy.org) and the
Jacob Sheep Breeders Association (JSBA.org).
We offer fleeces, roving and yarn in three different colors,
white, gray and black. Most popular is our tricolor roving 8 ounce
pack. Pelts and freezer lamb are also available.
We are proud of all our products but the most unique is the
SPARKY BEARSÔ line. In 1995 I started
making teddy bears from my Jacob sheep's wool.. The bears are
crocheted then fulled. Their cute little faces are added by needle
felting. Each SPARKY Bear receives its own ceramic button. They are
as individual as the sheep they come from and are made from 100 %
Jacob wool inside and out. They are a joy to make and a joy to hold.
Also located on our farm is the Thompson Pottery, a ceramic
studio where Bob creates his salt glazed pottery. His specialties
include large vases, stone candles and tea bowls.
