The Lamb's

The Lamb’s, Prout’s and Presley’s have been friends for many years. After six years of military service and over 20 years of local, state and federal government service the Lamb’s relocated to Downeast Maine. For the last 15 years they have worked in the local community throughout the medical and local business fields. Their children have grown up raking blueberries and selling them at roadside stands from a young age. The Lamb’s feel that it is important to instill a strong work ethic in their children, which carries over to the examples set in the business partnership at The By “US” Company.
