Lambsquarters was born in a quiet way several years ago with a shepherd's heart, a handful of ewes, and a vision for providing a healthy, wholesome, and great-tasting product to our local community here in central Wisconsin. We are located 6 miles north of Athens on Highway 97, and everyone is welcome to visit the farm and see how the animals are raised.

While most of our lambs are home-born, occasionally we do buy some feeders in the spring to better utilize our pastures. Our lambs start out on their mother's milk and then are moved out to pasture as soon as the spring grass starts growing. They remain there until fall, then some are moved to another field where they are finished on turnips and local hay. Only the lambs finished without the turnips qualify for listing on Eatwild as only the turnip greens are allowable. Our goal is to raise the lambs 100% organic, but we are not certified organic.

The lambs are normally ready in November or December, and we generally have lamb available through April of the following year. Quantities are somewhat limited so order early. We usually use a local processor, but can always take them to the facility of your choice. We offer lamb as whole, half, or individual cuts.

We look forward to hearing from you. Our goal is to have 100% customer satisfaction! Here is a testimonial from one of our local repeat customers: "Your lamb is the best I've ever had: so tender and juicy, just right. Next year I'm going to buy five from you!"—Victor, Athens WI.
