Shepherd's Lamb is produced on our family ranch in the mountains of Northern New Mexico. By maintaining control of our product, from raising the lambs to marketing them, we are able to offer lamb that many of our customers say is the best they have ever tasted.

Our flock grazes on lush native mountain grasses (wheat grass, grama and fescues) and their favorite shrubs, such as mountain mahogany and snowberry. Another favorite feed of the lambs is plumajillo (yarrow).

While on summer pasture, the flock and the shepherd's camp are moved to a new location weekly. This allows the ewes and lambs to have access to fresh feed at all times and ensures the long term good health of the range.

Because our lambs are never in a feedlot, they eat plenty of fresh feed and get plenty of exercise, giving them the delicate taste that is the hallmark of Shepherd's Lamb.
