The Wildwood Way
Story
We believe we are in the grass-growing business as much as the Wagyu business.
Our cattle roam the green heart of the Highlands, grazing on native and improved pastures nurtured by the highest rainfall in the state. We take a holistic approach, using our own home-grown silage to maintain consistency throughout the seasons.
During the final phase of growth, we introduce a tailored grain finish to perfectly refine the marble score and texture. Importantly, this is an added step; the cattle continue to graze on our pastures throughout this time, ensuring they remain on their natural diet while receiving the extra nutrition required for that final quality boost.
This isn’t industrial production; it’s a controlled, slow-growth cycle that respects the integrity of the animal. Because our beef is primarily grass-raised, it is naturally rich in Omega-3 fatty acids and CLA, making it as nutrient-dense as it is flavourful.
Experience
Our Fullblood Wagyu are raised in a high-performance ecosystem.
Living on the basalt-rich, cool-climate pastures of the Southern Highlands, they benefit from a year-round green grass cycle. By finishing with a custom grain ration, we don't just achieve a signature marble score of 2–6; we lock in a rich, buttery depth that only Fullblood genetics can produce. This is beef with a clean, mineral-forward finish that speaks to the lush, volcanic landscape they call home.

Marble Score Target
2-6 | Balanced
This is the sweet spot for the modern kitchen. A marble score of 2–6 offers the perfect harmony between beefiness and melt-in-your-mouth texture. The fat content is present enough to deliver that classic Wagyu luxury, but the grass-fed foundation ensures the meat remains vibrant and versatile. It is refined enough for a high-end steak preparation, yet robust enough to handle the heat of a heavy sear without losing its character.
