Product FAQs

Can I buy half a cow from Your Farmer?

Yes, you can buy a quarter, half or whole cow direct from the Savill family's Southern Highlands farm. A quarter comes as our standard mix of cuts. With a half or whole cow you can choose how it's cut (steak thicknesses, roast sizes, mince and sausage portions), and we'll ask when you order. We ProCryo blast-freeze and vacuum-seal every pack so it stores beautifully in your freezer.

How much freezer space do I need for half a cow?

A whole cow is 144 to 160 kg of cut, packed beef, a half is 72 to 80 kg and a quarter 36 to 40 kg. For a half you'll need a big chest freezer. A quarter needs about 70 litres of freezer space, so check before you order. Every pack is ProCryo frozen and vacuum-sealed, so let us freeze it properly.

Where can I buy half a cow near me in NSW or ACT?

If you're inside our 150 km Southern Highlands delivery footprint, Greater Sydney, Wollongong, Nowra, Southern Highlands, Goulburn or Canberra, Your Farmer delivers a half cow direct to your door. Same own-van delivery as our regular CSA shares. We don't ship interstate.

How is buying half a cow cheaper than buying cuts individually?

You pay one per-kilo price across the whole carcass instead of premium-by-the-cut, and that price covers premium steaks, roasts, mince and sausages alike. Buying the same volume by the cut would cost roughly 20% more. The trade-off is upfront cost and freezer space.

What cuts come from a half cow?

A half cow is basically two full rotations of our CSA Full Share (like getting 2x of boxes A, B, C and D). With a half or whole cow you can choose the cut breakdown, more roasts and less steak, more mince, however you eat. A quarter comes as our standard mix.

Is Your Farmer's half cow grass-fed and grass-finished?

Yes, every animal. 100% grass-fed AND grass-finished from birth to harvest on the Savill family's biodynamic Southern Highlands farm. No grain, no feedlot, no hormones, no Bovaer®10, no antibiotics. Slow-grown to 24–30 months for proper flavour and marbling.

How long does half a cow last in the freezer?

Properly stored at -18°C, ProCryo blast-frozen vacuum-sealed beef keeps at least 12 months without quality loss. A family of four typically eats through a half cow in 6–10 months. The vacuum seal stops freezer burn so the last pack tastes as good as the first.

Why buy half a cow from a Southern Highlands farm specifically?

The Savill family runs the original Southern Highlands grass-fed beef farm, David and Melissa launched Australia's first online paddock-to-plate subscription in 2011. Every animal is raised on biodynamic, ecologically certified pasture, audited against eight measurable outcomes. Other half-cow sellers in the region are good operations; very few share the Soil Food Web certification, biodynamic practice, and the published 8-outcomes audit.
