- Bass Coast Farm - Grass fed, antibiotic free Black Angus beef, olives,
eggs,
110 Trew Road, Woolamai, VIC 3995. Phone: 0409 252 373.
Email:
sylvia@basscoastfarm.com. Open: See their website. At Bass
Coast Farm we work hard to raise the best beef possible, beef that are
both healthy and flavoursome to eat. We approach this goal in 3 ways,
feeding only natural pasture, providing a quiet stress-free
environment and raising a select breed of cattle. We are pleased to
announce that we have been MSA graded in the top 5% of Australian
beef. This is a target we have worked hard to achieve and the results
are in the taste and tenderness of our beef. We strive to
produce pastures with a high quality mix of grasses and legumes for
our cattle to graze. This mix provides a healthy diet for the
livestock, and also a natural way to maintain a balance of nutrients
in the soil. We maintain a low stress environment. We interact
with the cattle in ways to ensure they are comfortable with us. As a
result, the livestock are easily moved from pasture to pasture with
little more than a call from the newly opened gate. This keeps our
cattle content and producing the best beef possible. Our Meat
Standards Australia graded Angus beef is the premium beef on the
market having received MSA grading in the top 5% of graded beef in
Australia. Angus cattle are noted for their marbled meat, making it
juicy, tender and full of flavour. Our Angus cattle are finished on
lush pasture grasses which produces an excellent 'marbled' beef that
is in great demand due to its distinctive flavour and renowned eating
quality. For those who insist on the very best, only natural
pasture-fed Angus beef will do. So, when you think about that juicy
steak, fall off the fork tender beef roast, or the best hamburger you
will put your hands around, we hope you will think about Bass Coast
Farm Angus beef.We have free range chickens in caravans so you can
also take some fresh eggs home too. We have 750 hens foraging and
scratching around in our olive grove or in paddocks vacated by our
Angus cattle. We use the term "pastured free range eggs" to
differentiate ourselves from "free range" which we feel has been
hijacked by the supermarkets. Free range can mean stocking densities
of 10,000 hens/hectare and we do not believe that is what our
customers understand as free range. So when you see "pastured" eggs
you can be assured that our hens have access to pasture 360 days per
year.

and May. We have 800 olive trees around 16 years old in a grove at
Woolamai where our chickens in their caravans spend the summer with
superb protection from the summer sun and heat. We are excited to
have our first crop of table olives and our very own olive oil in
2019. We have four varieties of olives being Kalamata, Picual,
Manzanillo and Corregiola. Come to our farm to collect some organic
olives to take home and cure in a salt brine or dried in salt as you
wish. We will have the recipe for you to follow. You can buy your salt
and container on the day. Entry includes 3kg of olives that you've
handpicked. No charge for children.

4PM THURSDAY TO SUNDAY. All of our animals are allowed to live
outside, expressing all of their natural behaviours and growing
healthily without the interference of chemicals or growth
hormones.More and more consumers are recognising the importance of
sourcing their meat locally. Knowing where your food comes from, and
how it is grown, is becoming so important for those who are interested
in fuelling their body with the right food. Grass fed beef and pasture
raised pork provide higher levels of healthy minerals and good fats
than their grain fed, indoor-raised counterparts. Grass fed beef
contains an equal amount of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. This
balance is vital for our health and plays a key role in the prevention
of widespread western illnesses such as heart disease, arthritis and
cancer. Plus, animals raised outside avoid long periods of
stress as they can express their natural instincts and relax freely in
an open and healthy environment. They are also much less likely to
contract diseases and therefore do not require medical treatments
throughout their lives.While you may find berries in your local
supermarket at any time of year, here at Ravens Creek we think it is
so important to eat locally and seasonally. Summer is the natural time
of year for healthy berry plants to produce fruit. So it is the best
time to enjoy them fresh, make them into jams and sauces or simply
throw containers in the freezer to pull out for a treat in winter! By
picking your own organically grown berries you are ensuring that you
and your family are getting the most nutrients out of this superfood
as possible. Come and visit us in the lead up to Christmas, and a few
weeks after, to stock up on delicious, fresh, chemical free berries.
