Welcome to
Dee Bar Farms
About the Farm
In 1965 Dee Bar Farms was created. Don Avila and Sheri started the Powell Butte farm which is named after AQHA Hall of Fame stallion, Docs Dee Bar. Don built each barn, dug every post hole and secured every pen. With daughter Sheri by his side and the support of a loving wife, Dee Bar Farms grew into one of the most beloved and sought after horse training facilities in the Pacific Northwest.
These days, Sheri and husband Ronnie take ownership, chore responsibility, and great pride in keeping the farm top notch. They also host the property as a wedding venue, Dee Bar Weddings →
