Glendalough Farms

certified organic sheep and beef grazing operation in the beautiful Strzelecki Ranges in South Gippsland. We believe in sustainable farming and are aiming to produce all the farm’s needs on the property. Our operation comprises a stud breeding Wiltipoll flock and a commercial beef herd. We select for our flock, animals that show a natural resistance to worms and those whose hooves cope well with t

he wet ground from the high rainfall we receive each year. This means we don’t have to rely on chemical treatments for our animals. We use no herbicides or pesticides on our pastures, so our animals only eat fresh, natural grass, herbs, and legumes. We believe in the ethical treatment of animals and strive to maintain a system of grazing that best mimics animals in the wild and our lambs are slaughtered by the award winning Radford’s abattoir in Warragul. We believe that small farming is essential to the future of sustainable agriculture and for the preservation of small, vibrant communities and local economies. Buying direct from a farmer that you can get to know and trust is a great way to support sustainable agriculture, healthy eating, and inclusive communities. Buying from a supermarket means farmers remain faceless and you place your trust in farming, and ultimately the environment, to large corporatised farms. We made the big move out here to the Dollar hills, dedicated to sustainable agriculture and passionate about good food. We are raising our small but growing family here, and we are hoping to pass down a sense of community, sustainable agriculture, and a holistic approach to a healthy existence, to our children. We hope you will consider supporting us and try our organic lamb and beef.
