Eddy Ridge Grassland

We grow grain and soy free lamb. Lambs are milk and grass fed alone from birth until the grass runs out in October. We supplement in winter with squashes and root vegetables. We feel strongly about keeping our meat low in omega-6 and do not even use grain or soy with our pregnant and lactating ewes. We time our lamb births to co-incide with the highest protein levels in spring grass, as the sheep would do naturally in a more temperate climate.

Our sheep are a rare heritage breed. Cotswold sheep are listed as "Threatened" by the Livestock Conservancy (http://www.livestockconservancy.org/index.php/heritage/internal/cotswold). Cotswolds are larger than average sheep, providing a better value for your butchering costs, and have a mild flavor. They are a slow growing seasonal breed which makes them an excellent choice for growing out on pasture.

Cotswolds also produce long sturdy wool, and we have fleeces available as well.

We welcome farm tours by appointment, we want you to be able to feel confident in the way we do things up here on the ridge.
