Grown on the free range pastures and rolling foothills of the Willamette Valley, where high precipitation guarantees lush green Oregon grasses. Our lambs thrive in these open fields with fresh air and lots of room to graze. They are left free to roam, eat when they like, and grow at their own natural rhythm.

Anderson Ranch lambs have little impact on the environment. Our lambs eat only grasses, and are fed no bi-products. More importantly for the purity of the meat, the lambs are given no antibiotics or growth hormones. This whole process produces a protein-rich, premium natural meat that tastes delicious. The Anderson's have been raising Oregon lamb for 5 generations. We have been selectively breeding our sheep for the highest quality of meat-producers.

Our lambs are prepared for market by Mohawk Valley Meats, another local family-run business. It's only 30 minutes from the Anderson Ranch, so the lambs have minimal stress before processing. We take pride in our premium, high quality lamb.

Lamb has been increasing in popularity as the choice of red meats. Oregon Lamb is lean and tender, and an excellent source of nutrition. Almost all cuts of lamb are low in calories, fat, and cholesterol. Oregon Lamb is a good source of iron, zinc, and vitamin B-12. It can be broiled, grilled or roasted. As a general rule, lamb tastes best when cooked medium rare to medium. Familiar ingredients used for marinades or rubs make lamb easy to cook, and delicious.
