Sheep

We take great pride in the care we give to our animals and the land that they live and graze on. We are dedicated to raising all of our animals sustainably, ethically, and humanely. Our sheep live on lush pasture, and we move them every few days to make sure that they have the best plants and plenty of space to keep them healthy and happy. They also play a role in our larger farm ecosystem, as they help sequester carbon in our pastures, build topsoil, and make productive use of fields that are not growing vegetables. These grazing practices not only benefit our farm and our land, they also improve the quality and flavor of the meat we provide to you, resulting in tender, lean, and exceptionally flavorful lamb of the highest quality.

Lamb Shares

Sign-ups for 2024 are now open!
Click here to place your order in our GrownBy shop.

Our pasture-raised lamb shares are available for purchase by the quarter, half, or whole animal. 

What is included in a lamb share?

A standard lamb share is the meat from one whole lamb. A whole lamb includes about 30–35 lb. of frozen meat, including rib and loin lamb chops, a leg roast, meat for kebabs, ground lamb, and shanks. A half-lamb share will include ~15-18 lb. of frozen meat of various cuts. A quarter share will include 8-10 lbs. of meat, including a half leg roast, ground lamb, and lamb chops. Additional cuts may be included, though no specific cut is guaranteed. Based on the genetics of the flock and our grazing practices, we expect exquisite flavor!

Butchering and Cuts

We will have our butcher cut the meat to our standard preferences. A whole lamb share should take up about a milk crate's worth of space in a freezer, very manageable for a small or medium family.  

If you order a whole lamb for the November pickup date and would prefer to specify your own cut sheet, we can accommodate that if you provide us details by October 25th. Email us at csa@heartyroots.com to request a custom cut sheet.
