With their young family in toe, jon and Olivia have not only developed and grown the business into a renowned Warrnambool cafe and roastery, but into a busy wholesaler working closely with cafes throughout regional Victoria.

Eating Seasonally:
A better choice for freshness.
Australia is home to a variety of seasonal produce and farming done better provides meat to compliment. From sweet, juicy mangoes in summer, to silverbeet in winter (NOTE: potatoes are actually harvested in December/Jan in cooler climates like Victoria, whilst in warmer areas they can grow all year round, generally our potato supply comes out of cold storage), an abundance of fresh seasonal produce is just a better way to live.
Find out more about the different fruits and vegetables that grow during different times of the year in Australia, and make a better choice to eat seasonally today.
With a bit of creativity and preparation, you can enjoy fresh, local meat, fruits and vegetables with plenty of flavour and health benefits all year long.

Going against the Grain:
For the zealous gastronome or experimental foodie, this presents a wonderful opportunity to become more creative in the kitchen than ever before. The Castle family encourages consumers to expand their cooking repertoire and experiment with new cuts of meat.
The traditional values of reducing waste have never been more relevant than now. When the Castle Estate (butcher and abattoir) prepares an animal as a source of food, they operate under the firm belief system that the whole animal must be utilised to minimise waste and avert frivolous farming.

Our Lamb Kofte with Pea Tabbouleh and Garlic Yoghurt is the perfect meal that can be thrown together in as little as 20 mins that will have you feeling like you’ve been transported to the Mediterranean. Our recipe can serve up to 4 people and if you’re looking to add a little bit of extra zest, add some Baharat: A Middle Eastern spice mix that is available from Herbie’s Spices (herbies.com.au) or some Middle Eastern delicatessens.

Managing the summer changes:
Ah summer! The nights are warmer, the days are longer and the BBQ is on a permanent rotation. While summer is the season for a whole lot of fun in the sun, at Castle Estate we need to prepare the farm for those warmer days when the sun is relentlessly hot. While the paddocks can become dry and arid, we need to do everything we can to keep our animals well fed and kept cool! Managing animals in high temperatures requires good forward planning. Keeping an eye on the weather forecasts, and developing a plan for days of high to extreme temperature is essential in ensuring that your animals will have sufficient shade and water on those very hot days.
Extreme heat causes significant stress for all animals which is something we try to minimise as much as possible because we know that if they live better, they taste better
