Butcher

About NGR Meats NGR Meats is a new business backed by NextGenRegen produce — and a wider network of regenerative, chemical-free farms.We’re building a butchery that supports farmers doing the right thing and gives customers real transparency from paddock to plate. We believe people deserve to know where their food comes from, how animals are treated, and what “real” farming looks like when you prioritise soil health, animal welfare, and honesty.Alongside our own pasture-raised pork and farm produce, we’ll also be butchering:

• Beef bodies (grass-fed and organically grown)
• Lamb + mutton (organically grown, grass-fed & finished)
• Goat (farmed and wild)
• Wild venison bodies (fallow, red and sambar) harvested by a contracted shooter
