Why Salt Marsh Lamb Is the Perfect Choice for Easter

Easter is one of the few moments in the year when a proper roast still feels non-negotiable - and if you’re looking to make it memorable Salt Marsh Lamb is hard to beat.

Raised on coastal marshlands where the sea regularly floods the pasture, Salt Marsh lamb develops a flavour unlike any other. The sheep graze on naturally salty grasses and wild herbs such as samphire and sea lavender, which gently infuse the meat with sweetness and depth. The result is lamb that’s exceptionally tender, delicate in flavour, and perfectly suited to slow roasting.

For Easter Sunday, a classic Salt Marsh Lamb roasting joint makes a beautiful centrepiece. Simply roast with garlic, rosemary and olive oil, allowing the quality of the meat to speak for itself. If you’re cooking for a smaller group, Salt Marsh Lamb chops or cutlets offer the same flavour in a quicker, more flexible format.

Beyond taste, Salt Marsh lamb is also a celebration of British farming. These rare grazing landscapes support biodiversity and traditional farming methods, making each cut something to feel genuinely good about serving.

Whether you’re planning a long Easter lunch or a relaxed spring gathering, Salt Marsh lamb brings something quietly special to the table - seasonal, distinctive and unmistakably British.
