A long time sheep farmer, Ben Calkins started Great American Lamb Company several decades ago with the intent to both provide premium, all-natural, family farm produced lamb for consumers who wanted lamb that was healthy and delicious and consistent in superior quality.

To develop consistent superior quality, we started supplying lamb to neighbors and other close acquaintances that knew about our farm and our all-natural, family farm produced lamb. Everyone that tasted our lamb was hooked on the tender, flavorful and mouth watering taste of the lamb, not to mention the healthfulness of the premium, all-natural lamb. As the popularity for our lamb increased, Calkins realized that his farm needed to build an additional marketing channel to increase awareness and make our lamb readily available to all consumers.

Ben Calkins decided to offer premium all natural family farm produced American lamb  to individual consumers directly through www.greatamericanlamb.com. And, Great American Lamb Company was launched!

At Great American Lamb Company, our mission is to solve challenges in the meat industry and offer consumers:
  • Premium, all-natural, family farm produced lamb using traditional methods. Our lamb contains no artificial additives used in production. All of our lambs are naturally raised on lush green pastures. Our lamb's sweet and mild taste is a result of traditional farming and sustainable agriculture.
     
  • More healthful lamb to aid in a healthier lifestyle and overall well-being. Lamb is a valuable source of protein, minerals and B-group vitamins including niacin, thiamin and riboflavin. Also, lamb is lean and low in cholesterol compared to other animal proteins. In fact, half of any fat in lamb is mono-unsaturated, the same type of fatty acids found in olive oil.
     
  • Contribute to America's family farms and agriculture. We believe that saving America's family farmers is vital to our nation's future. By partnering exclusively with traditional family farms, we believe we are strengthening rural America and our agriculture against the disparaging movement of industrial agriculture, that is eroding much of the beauty in our rural land, and displacing many farmers from the land they worked extremely hard to nurture and maintain.

We would love to hear from you. Please contact us should you want to know more about our premium, all-natural, family farm produced American lamb.
