PASTURE RAISED LAMB

Sunshine, Fresh Forage, and Happy Sheep: Pasture-Raised Lamb at Johnson Farm

We believe that the best lamb comes from sheep living their best lives. That's why we're committed to raising our flock naturally, on pasture, where they can roam, graze, and thrive under the open sky. We've carefully chosen two remarkable breeds perfectly suited for this environment: the hardy Katahdin and the striking Painted Desert sheep.

Why Pasture-Raised? It's Better for Everyone.

"Pasture-raised" isn't just a label for us; it's a philosophy that guides everything we do. Our sheep spend their days grazing on a diverse buffet of grasses that our fields provide. This natural diet, rich in nutrients and variety, contributes directly to their health and vitality.

• Happier, Healthier Animals: Our sheep live low-stress lives with the freedom to express their natural behaviors – grazing, socializing, exploring, and resting in the fresh air and sunshine. This environment fosters robust health and resilience.

• Sustainable Land Management: Raising sheep on pasture is a partnership with the land. Our grazing practices help improve soil health, promote biodiversity, and naturally fertilize our fields. We carefully manage grazing patterns to ensure the pastures remain healthy and productive year after year.

• Exceptional Quality Lamb: The result of this natural upbringing is lamb with unparalleled flavor and tenderness. The diverse forage contributes to a rich, yet mild and clean taste profile, free from the gaminess sometimes associated with conventionally raised lamb. It's naturally leaner, reflecting the active lives our sheep lead.
