OUR FARM - GREENHILLS
It all starts here. We aim to breed and raise the best quality livestock so that we can produce what we believe to be some of Australia’s best meat for you and your family.
The grass is thick and lush on our farm at Green Hills. You’ll find it about 20 minutes down the road from Daylesford, on the other side of Malmsbury, where the rich volcanic soil grows lush green pasture. Here, our prime lambs and cattle are free to graze. They enjoy the pasture and chew their cud resting in the shade of the old pine trees. We don’t place our stock in feed lots and are all completely grass-fed.
We also don’t give any of our stock hormones, antibiotics or the MrNA vaccinations. We have two separate farms (very close to each other), and if we buy in cattle that are not bred by us to boost our herd, they do receive the UltraVac injection as are most cattle and sheep in Australia. We do this before they are introduced to the rest of our herd to ensure that at all times, our breeding stock are always protected.
We spend a lot of time with our stock. This means they are used to people and are very calm. We ensure that any travel is done with care and we only use the finest processors in Victoria to ensure that they are treated with respect in a calm and stress-free environment. Less stress means better meat. So, when you buy meat from The Daylesford Meat Co., you know it’s local, grass-fed and always delicious.
Green Hills Natural Beef and Lamb is now some of the most sought-after meat in the country, gracing the menus at leading restaurants across the country, including our very own local, international award-winning Lakehouse. Read more here.
