Choosing grass-fed, grass-finished beef has become a popular and wise
decision for those seeking a healthier and more ethical option.

 1. Nutrient-Rich Goodness:
Grass-fed beef is a nutritional powerhouse, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins A and E, and antioxidants. These elements promote heart health and overall well-being.

 2. Happy Animals, Happy
Environment: In contrast to traditional feedlots, grass-fed cattle roam freely, grazing on natural grass. This not only ensures the well-being of the animals but also contributes to a more environmentally friendly and sustainable farming approach.

 3. Environmentally Conscious
Eating: For those concerned about their ecological impact, grass-fed, grass-finished beef generally has lower greenhouse gas emissions. compared to grain-fed alternatives. This makes it a more eco-friendly choice for conscientious consumers.

For individuals looking for ethically raised beef, grass-fed and grass-finished
varieties are the way to go. With nutritional benefits, adherence to ethical
farming practices, and a positive impact on the environment, it's a choice that
aligns with both personal and global well-being.

Commercial, intensively-farmed cattle are often implanted with a hormone chip. These hormones speed up growth, so that the animals are ready for market more quickly.

Our farm does not use hormones. Our cattle are 'slow-grown' and live a life as close to their natural state as possible.

Of, course, all animals generate their own natural hormones - these are the only hormone our herd has.

There is a lot of hype in the media about mRNA Vaccines, particularly in the prevention of Foot & Mouth Disease. However, mRNA Vaccines are currently not approved for use in Australia.

So, no, our herd is not inoculated with any mRNA vaccines.

We deliver to a number of regional areas across South-Eastern Queensland, including the Western Downs, Toowoomba, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Lockyer Valley, Darling Downs, North and South Burnett.

See our Delivery areas and delivery dates.

We will attempt to deliver to your door. If we can't, we will arrange a mutually agreeable meeting point to transfer the goods to you.

The first step to placing an order is to select the size share of beast you want (QUARTER, HALF or WHOLE) from our online shop and add to your cart - this purchase is the DEPOSIT only and required to secure your grass-fed beef.

If you want any additional items, such as beef cheeks or liver, you can add these to you cart as well.

Once the DEPOSIT purchase is finalised, we will contact you to discuss delivery dates and locations when making our delivery run.

The final payment amount will depend on the weight of your particular beast.

Delivery is free to our delivery run areas.

The dressed weight will be confirmed one week out from delivery, and you will be emailed with an invoice at this time.

The price of our beef is calculated on the dressed weight of the carcass.

The following dressed weight rates are used to calculate your final price:

• Quarter Beast: $15.00/kg
• Half Beast: $14.00/kg
• Whole Beast: $13.00/kg

HOWEVER, since dressed weight means just about nothing to people who aren't cattle, sheep or pig farmers, here is what it means to you in 'meat in your box' prices.

Please note, all beasts differ, and this is an indication only. The prices below are the approximate costs based on a recently completed order of a dressed weight (whole beast) of ~240kg grass-fed beef.

QUARTER: $900 for 46kg of meat, cut, bagged, labelled, boxed and delivered.
This equates to $19.57/kg for all cuts. This does not include bones.

HALF: $1,680 for 93kg of meat, cut, bagged, labelled, boxed and delivered.
This equates to $18.06/kg for all cuts. This does not include bones.

WHOLE: $3120 for 185kg of meat, cut, bagged, labelled, boxed and delivered.
This equates to $16.86/kg for all cuts. This does not include bones.

Each order consists of:

• Rib Fillet Steaks
• Eye Fillet Steak
• Rolled Rib Roast
• T-Bone Steaks
• Rump Steaks
• Topside Steak
• Blade Steak
• Round Steaks
• Y-Bone Steaks
• Osso Bucco
• Silverside
• Mince
• Sausages
• Bones (for soup or dogs)

The quantities of each cut vary according to the size of your order.
For more information, see our Shop page and select the delivery run and size that may suit you.

Our sausages contain beef, a gluten-free cereal to bind and salt but NO PRESERVATIVES.

Our silverside is corned the traditional 'butcher's way', using a nitrate solution.

Our beef is bagged in meal size portions, labelled and delivered fresh
(not frozen) in person by Dan (The Farmer).

Packing in Cryovac bags can be arranged with our butcher. The additional
cost for this is as follows:

Additional Cryovac Cost

Quarter $80

Half $160

Whole $320

 

Life happens. We get that. If you have a last minute disaster, we can hold your order over to the next delivery in your area.

We recommend freezing your meat as soon as possible after delivery.

HANDY TIP: Your meat will need to be turned in your freezer as it starts to harden up and freeze to avoid all your meat sticking together.
