Locally Sourced Produce
All our lamb is produced on our Family Farm owned and run by David Cooper. It is then all processed right here in Yarrawonga by the talented butchers at Belmore Butchery.
Judy grows a lot of our veggies and herbs in our Kitchen Garden including spinach, turnips, onions, carrots, lettuce, tomatoes, zucchinis and all of our fresh herbs. This guarantees we are using the freshest quality product available to us and also reduces our carbon footprint.
Whenever possible, we purchase the rest of our meat, veggies, and other ingredients direct from small farmers within our region.
Buying local means less waste, fresher ingredients, and it is a great way to support the regional economy.....
