WHAT WE DO

Beef Breeding & Sustainable Farming

We mainly breed for the weaner market, growing our own fodder crops to support our core herd. While we occasionally background cattle, our focus is on producing premium grass-fed weaners and quality beef for local Queensland customers — as well as supporting our son’s love of bees and honey.
