Sorensen Farms All Natural Lamb, Sheep, & Wool

All Natural Lamb and Wool

"All Natural, All The Time"

When do we have lamb?

We do not force our sheep to lamb out of season. However white face sheep such as the Romney breed tend to lamb in the fall and early spring months. Being so lamb is only available when the sheep decide it is so!

We allow the lamb to stay with the ewe in a pen until the lamb is large and strong enough to go back into the flock, usually within a week or two of birth. During this time the ewe receives quality organic alfalfa pellets (aids in clean wool), kelp, and some type of alfalfa hay for roughage.

"All Natural All the Time"

Our slogan is based on what we know to be the best for the sheep. We add Diatomaceous earth to loose salts for internal parasite control, keep watch of our animals, and use garlic quarterly for overall health. Kelp is a wonderful source of added nutrition that helps increase wool yield, decreases disease such as White Muscle, and assists with metabolism regulation. For more information on where our feed comes from and the standards set please see the About Us link on the left side of the page.

How do we sell the sheep and the wool?

Our sheep are sold by the whole lamb at around 80-90 pounds of weight to ensure a quality carcass or can be processed at a USDA facility for individual cuts. Prices vary based on how lamb is purchased, delivery options, and processing fees. Generally the lamb can be bought live for as low as $250 for a whole lamb and delivered locally or picked up at the ranch. Payment is accepted via cash, check, or credit card.

Cuts of Meat: Families are able to enjoy lamb in various cuts as describeda bove. Our lambs are processed with standard cuts of meat but we can get variety based your preferences for items such as more ground meat, stew meat, bone in, etc.

Wool: Our wool is available by the pound and we shear the sheep in April each year after crutching earlier in the year to keep the fleece clean during lambing for the health of the ewe and the lamb. We walk our pasture weekly and pull weeds and keep our corrals as weed free as possible and our slab cleaned off too so our wool stays as clean as it can.
