What is "SOURCE Shout-Out?"

In an effort to keep our customers connected to a community of high-quality foods straight from the SOURCE, we bring a feature product to the table, to share with you each week.  Whether this is a product that you already carry or something new to consider, this allows us to share the stories behind the sustainable products that we all love and enjoy.  We invite you to share this information among your retail/restaurant teams and with your customers, so that together we can trace the path of where our food is coming from.  Thank you for playing such an integral role in our food system.

May the SOURCE be with YOU!

Colorado Lamb by Longs Peak Lamb 

Longs Peak Lamb is a premium, local, natural lamb product developed and processed by Innovative Foods. Many might not be aware that our very own backyard is the lamb feeding capitol of the US, stretching between Longmont, Brighton, Greeley and Fort Collins.

The lamb supply for the Longs Peak Lamb brand comes from livestock raised by Larry Crego of Crego Land and Livestock in Wellington CO. For over 6 decades, the Crego family has been raising quality sheep on their 30 acre irrigated pasture. In addition to providing high quality meat for our community, top quality Crego Family show lambs are brought to 4-H and FFA livestock shows around the country.

The black faced ewes harvested for Longs Peak Lamb include Hampshire and Hampshire/Suffolk crossbreds. These particular breeds are big, lean and exceptionally muscular lambs processed between 5-8 months in age. Resulting in their unique taste and texture, Crego sheep are fed naturally on grass, alfalfa and mama's milk. They are then finished on a sweet feed ration with grain, protein and molasses. This vegetarian diet is natural and free of any animal by-products, hormones or antibiotics.   

 

For your upcoming Christmas or New Year's menu specials contact your area sales rep for fresh cuts of this rich, delicious native animal. Slow roasted shoulders and leg of lamb served in their own juices allows the meat to speak for itself. Longs Peak Lamb fresh grind has a very mild, sweet flavor adding a delicious twist to your burger or slider, for a local Colorado flare. American lamb is 10,000 miles fresher than imported lamb. Invite your customers to taste this sustainable difference!
