Livestock

about our animals

Our livestock are central to everything we do. We raise traditional and native breeds because they thrive outdoors, suit pasture-based systems and produce meat with real depth of flavour.

The Melbourne Park Herd

ABOUT OUR HERO

There are many different types of farmers, but we’re driven by a desire to preserve our countryside and conserve a special breed of cattle: the Old English Longhorn.
As the custodians of our beautiful landscape and these equally beautiful beasts, we take our responsibility very seriously.

The success we have had at country shows over the years is just the cherry on the cake – the hard work is done throughout the year and across the decades.

We love to breed the very best of the best, but we are also very proud of the work we have done to return much of Park Farm to pasture – and of course the success of our Old English Longhorn.
