Whole Hogget Share
About the Animals:
Pink Moon raises a flock of Icelandic Sheep. The sheep are rotated around the farm, with access to fresh grass every week. Care is taken to reduce the amount animals are dewormed and vaccinated, however these tools are used when necessary.
What is hogget? Hogget is meat from sheep between 13 months to 2 years of age (as opposed to 12 to 14 months for lamb). We harvest hogget at 16 months, striking a balance between tenderness and flavor. Meat from Icelandic sheep is already quite mild. These animals will have more lamb flavor, more grassy kick from our pastures, and a darker red color. Not quite mutton, not quite lamb—this meat has flavor AND tenderness.
Pricing:
Lamb is available either on the whole or half animal. A cut and wrap sheet will be sent out to lamb customers for them to indicate what cuts of meat they would like if there are options. Typical cuts include rack of lamb, chops, saddle roasts, shoulder roast, leg of lamb, stew meat, and ground lamb. Custom cutting, or primal whole, half or quarter animals are also available depending on customer preference.
Final hanging weights are variable, but are between 40lbs and 50lbs, Pink Moon charges $9/lb of the hanging weight which is provided by the butcher upon delivery. This weight is before butchering, and you will go home with about 35lb to 45lb of lamb meat. A deposit of is required for your share These deposits go to the final price of the animal, which includes a $140 slaughter, and butcher fee.
Prices (less the deposit) range between $440 and $540 for a full depending on the weight of the animal.
Dates: Pink Moon will harvest Nov 4th 2024. Shares will be available before the Thanksgiving holiday. We will communicate pick up dates as soon as possible once we get information from our butcher.
Once you’ve made your deposit, refund is not available, unless your spot can be replaced by another interested eater. Shares can be picked up on farm or directly from the butcher (Mountain View Meats). Arrangements to meet for a pick up in Seattle or in Tacoma are also available depending on scheduling.
