The
breeding cycle of the Welsh Mountain ewe means that our lamb is a
seasonal
delicacy, only available each year from August to March. Our lambs
remain
out-of-doors throughout the year, eating only home produced grass and
hay with
maybe a few sugar beet nuts in hard winter weather. As a result they
are fit,
healthy and naturally lean, as well as being full of flavours from the
wild
herbs on which they graze.
The Welsh Mountain breed is well adapted to
the
often-h arsh environmental conditions found here in the valley. The
sheep are
smaller than many other breeds, and as a result, the various joints of
meat may
be a little smaller than you may be used to. Generally we will supply
them as whole or half lambs,
fully butchered and labelled. There
are shoulders, legs, chops, neck, racks and breast with a whole animal
amounting to a total weight of 10-20 kg.
We
will only supply our lambs as a fresh product so they must be prepared
to order.
We therefore will require prior notice to allow time for butchering and
delivery.
