A natural life, for natural beef
In these semi-wild spaces, the cattle roam and eat freely, raised in a natural environment. The limestone, the flora and the freedom give the cattle a good life, all of which results in the enhanced texture and flavour of the meat.

“
I think using animals for food is an ethical thing to do, but we’ve got to do it right. We’ve got to give those animals a decent life and we’ve got to give them a painless death. We owe the animal respect.

Slow growing and quality life
Hereford and Angus cattle
The cattle are grass-fed and range freely over the extensive pastures; all cared for and maintained through the regenerative farming practices the O’Rourke’s implement. These practices take into account all aspects of the environment, from biodiversity, sustainability, animal welfare and managed grazing. This farming style benefits the animals, allowing them to live and grow in a natural pace and way, resulting in quality of life for the animals and better beef for humans.
