Savoring The Health Benefits of Lamb
and Chevon.
Lamb and goat are lean and naturally nutrient rich. Therefore, these meats fit into the recommended healthy, balanced eating program.
Go lean with protein!

Many cuts are lean with less than 200 calories perserving. Increasing lamb and goat demand may mean some shifting away from dominant beef, poultry and pork.
As grain prices increase the shift is to a more sustainable grazing program. We are not an organic farm, but believe in raising healthy
animals naturally. The small ruminants dominate the acreage surrounding our house and barn.
These pastures range in size from five to twenty
acres arranged like the spokes on a wagon wheel with the barn/house as
the hub. The remaining 800 acres are devoted to the Brangus cattle
and the herd of commercial cows.
Indian Hill Farm is Florida's leading exporter of sheep and goats to the Caribbean and Central
America.
Foreign governments as well as leading animal producers purchase breeding stock to improve herds in their respective countries.
Our animals easily adapt to life in harsher environments. Our animals travel for food and water and do not live a sedimentary lifestyle in paddocks and small pens.
There is no
artificial weight gain with excess grain or hormones. The meat breeds
that we raise (Boer goats, Dorper and Katahdin Sheep) are known to be hardy in varied climates, hot and cold. Meat to bone ratio is exceptional with little waste.
