Commercial Flock
Englewood Park has a very commercial focus and uses our Prime Lamb Enterprise to prove the genetic value of our rams. Joining 1300 1st X ewes with their sucker lambs sold over the hooks as trade lambs to Safeway, M.C. Herd and Coles, and export lambs sold to ALC and Castricum Brothers.
The proof is in our prime lambs |
