KEY COMPONENTS OF THE WWGA MISSION

MEMBERSHIP

Our members are the foundation of the Wyoming Wool Growers Association. Membership in the WWGA gives strength to the Association and to Wyoming’s sheep industry. Anyone who is engaged in the production of sheep, goats or livestock, either directly or indirectly, is eligible for membership in the Association upon payment of the prescribed dues.

EWE & RAM SALE

The WY Select Bred Ewe Sale and State Ram Sale
offer first class ewes and
rams that meet the most
rigorous standards of any
sale in the country.

RAM SIRE TEST

Each year the WWGA offers two ram sire tests designed to provide producers with
information on key genetic traits  of their animals. 
Conducted in cooperation with, and through, the University of Wyoming,
the tests are open to any producer interested in improving herd genetics.
