Linwood Lamb: Let me first say thank you for your lamb purchases over the past few months. Linwood Sheep Farm has been around for 5 generations, starting back in the 1940’s in the Linwood Community of Watertown. This past year we ventured into direct marketing our lamb to consumers. We have been overwhelmed at the positive response we have received by providing locally grown lamb to you.

We have been coming to the Stones River Market every week for several months. Sometimes we bring 4 to 5 orders, other weeks just 1 order. My questions is: Would it disrupt the way you shop if we continued with the market but only came every other week? Obviously, this would save us transportation dollars by doubling up the orders and just traveling twice a month to Murfreesboro as opposed to every week. The last thing we want is to create a burden for any of our customers.

Order this week and we will return in 2 weeks.
