Sheep producers are invited to join Laura Minnig of The Spicy Lamb Farm, a
Cuyahoga Valley National Park Countryside Conservancy farm, to learn about
the value of using ultrasound technology to select breeding stock and improve
product quality. Funded by a grant from the Sustainable Agriculture Research
and Education (SARE) program, the Northcoast Lamb Co-Op is using carcass
ultrasound scanning to enhance the market quality of their lamb and to measure
muscle quality deficiencies.
This program was developed with support from the SARE program, which is funded by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA-NIFA). Any opinions,
findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed within do not necessarily reflect the view of the
SARE program or the USDA. USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.
Registration: This workshop is free, but pre-registration is required. To register, contact Laura
Minnig at laura@thespicylamb.com by June 3. For more information about The Spicy Lamb Farm,
