Questions
How many sheep and lamb slaughter plants does Minnesota have?
15 establishments in Minnesota carry the flag in the FSIS directory of 2026-09-01, in 12 counties. 15 of them also report custom-exempt work, which is what a household needs to have its own animal processed.
What does the sheep and lamb flag mean?
Establishments with a slaughter flag for sheep or lamb. Small-ruminant capacity is thin in much of the country, which is why booking windows for lamb run long.
Are state-inspected plants included?
No. This list is federal grants of inspection only. Minnesota also runs a state meat inspection program whose plants can sell within the state; the state agency keeps that list, and the Minnesota buying guide explains how the two systems fit together.
