Ordering Lamb
When you order lamb by the half  you get the following:

1 hind leg (either bone in or boned or in leg kebabs)
1 loin (in chops)
the rack (whole or in chops)
the shanks (whole or ground)
the shoulder (whole, boned or large chunks of stew meat)
ground lamb
liver, heart, kidneys and stew bones are optional

Half a lamb is approximately 20 lbs. of meat and takes up just under a cubic foot
of freezer space.  When you order a whole lamb, you get double the amount i.e.
approximately 40 lbs. of meat.  A full sized freezer usually has a capacity of 16
cubic ft. and can hold 500 lbs. of meat.  Depending on the time of year, some cuts
may or may not be available.  For example, we currently have all of our shoulders
in large pieces of stew meat.
Figuring out Shipping Charges

Folks are always welcome to visit the farm and pick up the meat themselves.  I
also deliver into the Portland metro area.  If you live in most parts of Oregon and
Washington, I can ship the frozen lamb via UPS ground and it should get there in
a day.  We ship our lamb in a styrofoam cooler together with dry ice.  Please
contact us for exact shipping rates to your location.  Your shipping charge will
reflect the shipping rate as well as the cost of the cooler.  You can either call
(503) 662-4249 or email me.
