How Our Lambs Are Raised:

In 2008 our daughter, Autumn, started raising Katahdin sheep.  They are a breed of hair sheep known for hardiness, high meat quality, and adaptability to grass-based farming systems.  Our goal is to eventually graze our sheep and cattle together in the pasture to better  manage the weeds. 

The ewes and lambs are rotated between pasture paddocks.  This makes the pasture stretch further than if it were continuously grazed and allows time for new pasture growth.  Once the snow gets too deep for the sheep to graze we move them to our barn where they spend the winter staying warm and munching on grass hay.   Once the grass is ready and the temperatures are up it is back out to pasture for the ewes and their newborn lambs.

Grass-fed lamb is high in natural Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) and Omega 3.  We are happy to offer an entirely grassfed meat for consumers who are looking that option.  The grassfed Katahdin meat is lean and has a mild flavor.
