Grassfed Lamb Hampers
Exciting news! Our Lamb Hampers will be available for order with our next MOOsings. Our lamb is consciously raised, chemical free, 100% grass fed and hormone free. When we say grass fed, we mean that the sheep have access to a variety of pasture plants – grasses, forbes, legumes and more (like with our beef). As well as this, the sheep browse the lower leaves of different trees and shrubs. This all contributes to a diet that is very diverse, which is great for their health and great for our health.
Last week we ran a trial of our lamb hampers and after working through cuts with our butcher we have decided on a choice of two hampers – the Whole Lamb Hamper and the Half Lamb Hamper.

Feedback from our trial has been wonderful and Derek & I have enjoyed a variety of lovely lamb meals so far. Grilled Chump chops, Lamb Biryani and some Herb, Lemon and Garlic crusted Lamb Racks that Derek cooked for my birthday just recently, that were especially delicious! I will share this recipe in due course.
Lamb racks are a wonderful meal to cook for guests and this is probably the one hamper variation that we will offer. If you would like the cutlet component of a Whole Lamb Hamper left as lamb racks, we can do that. This then gives 4 lamb racks – enough to cook up for a dinner party.
If you’re a lover of lamb and would like to try one of our nourishing lamb hampers in the New Year, please keep an eye out for our next MOOsings to order. Of course, how many lambs we have to offer will depend on how quickly the lambs grow and about this, we are still learning. We’re excited about these two new offerings on our hamper list!
All the best,
Kirrily
