Farm to Table Lamb - Flemingsburg, Kentucky
We’re the Schwartz Family: Zack, Margaret, and our children Bryce and Nora. Together we’re carrying on a family legacy as the 6th generation of the Schwartz Family to raise sheep. We’re raising our kids alongside our flock of sheep in Flemingsburg, KY. Zack and I started this journey wanting to share our lamb with friends and family and quickly realized we had an entire community looking to support local farms.
As farmers, we spend long days on the farm, but we are blessed to be able to raise our children on a farm where they can explore and learn some of life’s best lessons. After all, we are raising the next generation of agriculture.
Our family, feeding your family.
We’re proud to be able to supply your families with locally raised pork & lamb. All of our lamb is bred, born, raised, and finished on the farm.
Our Berkshire & Duroc pork is finished on the farm, we'll be farrow to finish this fall.
We work hard every day to raise our livestock with the best practices resulting in delicious, nutrient dense meats.
We’re glad you're here!
