About the Brand

Grass-fed means something different in New Zealand. This little island of ours has the ideal conditions for grass-based farming; fertile soils, good amounts of sun and rain, a temperate climate, fresh air, and clean water.

Fresh, lush, rolling green hills and pastures. This is where our farmers raise their animals, free to roam and graze as nature intended, promoting better animal welfare. A diet of nutrient-rich grass produces natural marbling and gives a finer, more delicate texture in the meat. The result is the finest quality, delicious, grass-fed red meat.

Founded in 1948, Silver Fern Farms is New Zealand’s leading procurer, processor, marketer and exporter of premium quality lamb, beef and venison.

We care deeply about doing the right thing and doing it well, striving every day to be the world’s most successful and sustainable grass-fed red meat company.

Our ‘plate-to-pasture’ strategy is how we make it happen – focusing first on identifying consumer needs, and then working with our farmers to grow animals and apply our expertise to meet those needs.

We are a company of proud, passionate farmers and food people, dedicated to doing the right thing, collaborating and innovating, and always creating inspirational food for our customers.

At every step in the journey from pasture to plate, the highest level of care is taken to make sure our red meat is the very best it can be.

Should I buy my red meat from Silver Fern Farms

Silver Fern Farms is supplied by approximately 16,000 family farmers across New Zealand — and each one of those farmers knows that raising flavorful, high-quality red meat requires more than just expertise and hard work. It requires care, passion, and respect, and those values play a role in every part of our business.

Our goal is to provide you with exceptional red meat, but we make it a priority to do so responsibly. That’s why we follow the principles of the five freedoms for animal welfare and implement initiatives to minimize our environmental impact. It’s why we’re a founding member — and the only red meat company — to join New Zealand’s Climate Leaders Coalition. When you buy from Silver Fern Farms, you’re not just buying delicious red meat — you’re buying into the humane treatment of livestock, sustainability, and a community of independent farmers.

What makes Silver Fern Farms' grass-fed meat different?

Our ability to grow nutritious grass year-round means our farmers can raise animals with a light touch, allowing them to lead as close to a natural life as possible. The result is lean, tender red meat with a cleaner and more complex flavor than grain-fed meat.

How does grass-based farming work in New Zealand?

Most of the land used for livestock in New Zealand is unsuitable for crops, making pastoral farming a highly sustainable alternative. Our grass-based system optimizes natural resources and uses low-intensity farming practices to minimize environmental impact. Using a natural abundance of rainwater to grow grass, farmers optimize livestock to match the natural grass growth curve.
