Yanjala slow grown pastured pork
Yanjala is a small-scale free range farm near Murgon, an hour inland from Gympie, Queensland.
We keep a very small herd of only 7 sows and 1 boar.
We believe in ethical farming methods, producing high quality true free range meat that is good for our bodies, good for the animals and good for our land.
All of our pigs are completely free range; living outdoors, in the fresh air, on open pastures. They have the freedom to do what they love to do... run, dig, forage, wallow and most of all, socialise!
We have chosen to grow Wessex Saddleback pigs for our pork. Wessex Saddlebacks are a heritage breed pig, ideally suited for living in the outdoors and make wonderful paddock foragers.
We do not claim to be organic, however our pigs never receive additives, chemicals, hormones or antibiotics. Just real... natural... slow grown pork.
Our pork is much darker in colour than your usual supermarket pork. The texture is completely different, it's extremely moist and melts in the mouth. It's sweet and full of flavour, with a wonderful marbling of fat that produces incredibly juicy succulent pork.
We sell our pork direct to the public as either a whole pig or shares in a whole pig (our shareholders each receive equal portions of pork from the whole pig). We can send our whole pig orders as far north as Rockhampton, south to Brisbane and anywhere in between. Our pork is fresh and packed in butcher bags - we don't freeze or cryovac our meat.
Our fellow local farming community means the world to us, and we support them when we can by donating our pork in times of need. Read more about the power of pork.

It's all in the taste... once you've tried pastured pork, you'll never want to go back to supermarket meat.
