Consumer and Producer Workshop to connect local sheep producers with potential
consumers, thereby increasing lamb meat demand. According to a recent survey,

producers have never tried the mouthwatering savory lamb they raise. The focus
and intent of this workshop is to bridge the gap between producers that are
looking for ways to boost their production and adventurous consumers seeking to
diversify their home cooking cuisine. This combination will increase local
sheep production and more profit margin for the producers. The topics and
speakers are: Sheep Farming Profitability - Linda Coffey (Livestock Specialist,
NCAT), Sheep Market Outlook - Jennifer Lutes (Ag. Specialist, MU), Why You
Should Eat Lamb - David Brown (Livestock Specialist, MU) and Lamb-Cut Demo - MU

Cooking, the Best of Chef Lou & a Little More” with 35 Years Professional
