Why Buying Meat Direct From the Farmer Makes Sense

Have you ever stood in the supermarket looking at packs of meat and wondered where it actually came from?

More and more New Zealanders are asking that very question. People want to know how their food has been raised, who produced it, and what they're feeding their families.

That's one of the reasons we started Burgess Peaks Beef & Lamb Boxes.

Know Exactly Where Your Meat Comes From

When you buy directly from Burgess Peaks, you're buying from the people who raised the animals.

Every animal has been born or carefully selected, raised on our farm near Raglan, and managed with care from start to finish. We know the history of every animal we sell, giving you complete confidence in where your food comes from.

That's what we mean by paddock to plate.

Quality You Can Trust

Our cattle are 100% grass-fed and carefully bred using Angus and Piedmontese genetics. This combination produces beef that is naturally tender, beautifully marbled and full of flavour.

Our beef and lamb are professionally processed, vacuum packed and fully traceable before being delivered directly to your door.

Most of our products contain no added preservatives or additives, allowing the quality of the meat to speak for itself.

Supporting Local Farming

Buying directly from a local farmer means your money stays within New Zealand communities.

Every order supports our family farm and allows us to continue investing in quality livestock, responsible farming practices and producing premium beef and lamb for Kiwi families.

A Better Connection With Your Food

One of the things we enjoy most is getting to know our customers.

Whether it's helping someone choose the right meat box, answering cooking questions or sharing what's happening on the farm, buying direct creates a connection that's difficult to find elsewhere.

You're not buying from a large company—you’re buying from the people who genuinely care about the product they're producing.

Fresh, Convenient and Delivered to Your Door

We understand life gets busy.

That's why we make ordering easy.

Your meat arrives professionally packed, clearly labelled and ready for the freezer. We also pride ourselves on fast local delivery, with next-day delivery available across much of our local area (excluding weekends).
