Farmers

Gippsland Natural - Beef

Gippsland Natural beef is produced by a group of farmers spread across the Gippsland region from Phillip Island to Traralgon and Neerim South in the hills, to Tarwin Lower in South Gippsland.

They are united by their passion and dedication to produce a superior product and deliver it without compromise, from their paddocks to our plates.

The cattle are free to roam and eat lush green grass, living stress-free as nature intended. They are raised without hormonal growth promotants, and live in an environmentally friendly way thanks to the sustainable environmental management system (Enviromeat) pioneered by Gippsland farmers.

The environmental impacts of farming and are assessed and managed on an ongoing basis so both the cattle and our precious land are cared for without any negative impacts.
