Our sheep thrive on the lush green prairie pastures spring, summer, fall, and most of the winter. Our lambs are never placed in feed lots, never given hormones. Raised with thoughtful care by our shepherds, Mint Creek lamb is mild-flavored, tender, and tasty.<br /><br />Grass feeding is great for the sheep, and therefore, better for you. Eating grass-fed lamb is a healthy way to enjoy meat in your diet. Research indicates that eating grass-fed meat is a healthy choice, because it is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), Vitamin E, and beta-carotene, and is typically lower in fat than grain-fed meat.<br /><br />We are sure that you will enjoy the flavor and healthful benefits from eating our delicious, tender lamb.http://www.mintcreekfarm.com/blog/2007/11/asdf.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Mint Creek Farm)
