Hereford cattle are synonymous with producing supreme quality beef the world over. The red steers and heifers with their distinctive white faces have been putting great tasting beef on the dinner tables for centuries. Being reared in the North West corner of Ireland, our Glenslieve Hereford beef has one major advantage.
The magic combination of a temperate climate, lush green grass and a breed with a relaxed temperament means our Herefords produce some of the finest marbled beef that’s in such great demand throughout Europe. For the Hereford breed has a natural ability to convert grass to beef efficiently, making it ideally suited for our unique climate.
Of course, here in Ireland we’re blessed with so much pure, clean rain that we have the highest growth rate of grass in the Northern hemisphere. On top of this, 80% of farmland in Ireland is grassland; that’s double the European average.
