LOCAL LAMB from
the meadows of Loudoun County, Virginia Phone 703-542-6226 OR ***
We are a small family farm located on 12 rolling acres south of Leesburg,
Virginia, convenient to Ashburn and Brambleton, off Evergreen Mills Rd. _ _ _ _ _ Our goal is to produce healthy, tender and flavorful local lamb for our customers, while raising our sheep
in the most natural environment possible. Our sheep graze freely on the lush green meadows, enjoying the fresh country
air and natural well water. We currently have one ram and 30 breeding ewes on the farm. _ _ _ _ _ Our production method is called "intensive grazing management."
This means that we subdivide our fenced pastures into 2 to 6 grazing areas using temporary fencing. We allow our groups
to "eat half, leave half." This frequent relocating of our flock allows the pastures to recover quickly from
grazing, prevents erosion from overgrazing, and promotes a healthier flock. _ _ _ _ _ Their diet consists mainly of grass in the pastures, with the seasonal addition of hay, whole grain corn,
and flaked barley. Feeding a little corn and barley results in a milder tasting lamb than the strictly grass-fed imported
lamb. We do not feed any growth hormones or antibiotics. _ _ _ _ _ Our
lamb is 10,000 miles fresher!
We are proud members of the following organizations:
