Whole Lamb Share - Paid to Stemple Creek Ranch

We have our 100% grass-fed and 100% grass-finished Hampshire and Dorset available all year around. It usually takes 5-6 weeks from the time of placing your order to picking up everything at the butcher shop. The price for a whole lamb is $9.99 per pound on the hanging weight. Hanging weights typically range from 50-60 pounds, resulting in a price range of $500 - $600 (does not include the cut and wrap fees).

Please note this is an average weight range and the final hanging weight may fall outside of this estimate.

To purchase a whole lamb, you'll be required to pay a non-refundable deposit of $350. Once the weight of the lamb is determined, we will automatically charge your payment method for the remaining balance.

Butcher Selection & Fees - Paid to the Butcher Shop at Pick Up

You have the option to choose between two butchers for processing: Willowside Meats in Santa Rosa, CA or Bud's Custom Meats in Penngrove, CA. The butcher shop will communicate with you directly regarding the cut and wrap process and when they expect to have the meat ready for you. They will always strive to meet your preferred timeline. The custom cut and wrap fees are paid directly to the butcher shop.

Willowside Lamb Custom Cut & Wrap Fee: $80

Bud’s Lamb Custom Cut & Wrap Fee: $88

Cost Per Meal

Purchasing a whole lamb offers excellent value while allowing you to stock your freezer with premium 100% grass-fed and grass-finished lamb. For example, a 50-pound hanging lamb will typically yield about 37.5 pounds of take-home meat after processing (approximately a 75% yield). Including the custom cut and wrap fee, your total investment is approximately $580–$588, depending on the butcher you choose. That works out to about $15.45–$15.67 per pound of finished meat, or approximately $7.75 per meal based on a ½-pound serving.

Please note the final costs will vary slightly from animal to animal based on the hanging weight.
