Ethically-produced beef is the one consideration on a cattle breeding property where the day to day management is in the hands of a “Body Corporate”; where the decisions are made by the 150 “steakholders”, plus the chooks, guinea fowl, dogs, resident kangaroos and even the odd koala; where the owners act as chairman and secretary and every debate decides the welfare of the animals.
At Surrey Springs, that’s about as close as it comes. The welfare of our animals is paramount and our objective is to produce the best beef possible. Humanely.
When eating our beef, you will know exactly where it has come from, avoiding the uncertainty associated with all the middle men who are involved with the product on a supermarket shelf. This is your opportunity to secure a reliable supply of top quality beef straight from the farmer at prices which are free of manipulation or greed.
Bonnie Beef Growers: Farm to family, humanely bred beef
Bonnie Beef Growers is a new venture created by caring growers to give beef-lovers direct access to local, delicious beef from humanely-grown animals.
Customers order directly from us and we deliver directly to their door anywhere between Gympie and Brisbane. A range of pre-selected packs is available starting from a 10 kg Starter Pack, through to Quarter and Half Packs. Whole beasts may also be ordered, packed down into easily-handled quantities.
Cuts are packaged into vacuum-sealed bags in servings suitable for two people, or a meal.
We grow the cattle, so we know the cattle, and you are welcome to talk to us and ask us anything about them. You may also visit the farm at Wolvi (near Gympie) by arrangement.
Bonnie Beef has been developed by Bev and Gordon McKauge and their daughter Kym and son-in-law Geoffrey Burnell-Jones. It was started with a view to getting a fair price for farmers and growers, creating a culture of care and respect for the animals we farm, supporting local family-based businesses, and supplying healthy, grass-fed, top quality beef directly to local customers.
We had some friends over today and cooked up some bonnie beef rump. We all loved it. The kids had Bonnie beef sausages and couldn’t stop them saying yum. Thank you.
