Native Maine Raised Lamb.

by Wicked Fresh Connect®
|
North Star Sheep Farm grows natural lamb in Windham, Maine that is healthy, nutritious and perfectly finished. North Star Sheep Farm produces the highest quality of lamb for discerning chefs. The lambs are raised humanely using modern management techniques that promote sustainable agriculture. Their animals are pasture raised and finished with wholesome grains.
- The animals are raised on pasture grazing the natural grasses of Maine.
- Forage based program along with a whole grain finishing diet gives the lamb a wonderful marbling without the fat covering of heavy grain fed lamb.
- Grazing with small amounts of whole grains gives the tender lamb a wonderful taste not available in grass-fed only programs.
- Their pastures are not fertilized nor sprayed with any herbicide.
- North Star’s animals are not given added hormones EVER. Antibiotics are used to treat individual animals on a case by case basis when needed.
- The feed program is a vegetable diet and includes pasture grasses during the growing seasons, locally grown first and second cut Timothy hay during the winter and early spring along with whole oats and barley.
- All grain products contain no animal by-products, no added hormones and no added antibiotics. These animals are processed in local USDA plants using humane animal practices.
