Preview | 1m 4sVideo has Closed Captions
A laid-off coal worker and his wife accidentally built America's most celebrated lamb farm.
When John and Sukey Jamison bought an old farmhouse in rural Pennsylvania, they never planned on 65 acres — or a new life. After a layoff and a leap of faith, they began raising lamb that no one locally would buy. Then a Michelin-starred French chef tasted their meat and wept. What started as a long shot became a legendary farm-to-table story of passion, grass, and grit.

We wanted to raise the best lamb in the country, which we did.
Well, her father thought we were crazy.
He thought it was as he always liked to say... a one way ticket to bankruptcy.
Was it bankruptcy or...?
I think it was.
Yeah.
We always came to farming through food.
I think that's why we were different, because we wanted to make sure that the product tasted good.
And so we came at it from a different angle.
I didn't think it was going to be anything like the size that it ended up being.
