Ti Maunga are words from the New Zealand Māori language meaning "mountain of cabbage trees”. Cabbage trees are found in the grassy hills in the countryside of Maungati, South Canterbury in New Zealand's spectacular South Island. We felt that this name perfectly reflects the landscape and environment from where our sheep and cattle are naturally raised.
Ti Maunga meat comes from some of the safest, sustainable and most natural farms in the world, located in over 450 hectares of beautiful rolling countryside of South Canterbury, New Zealand owned by the Crawford family.
Located in the southeast Pacific Ocean, the islands of New Zealand are famed for their pure environment, exceptional farmers, unspoiled land, and spectacular scenery. The farm is located in Cannington, which is a lightly populated locality situated approximately 28 kilometers (18 miles) southwest of Timaru in the Canterbury region of New Zealand's South Island. It is a small farming community in an area with primarily sheep and cattle farming and has ancient Māori rock drawings.
Here in South Canterbury, the temperate climate means that the grass grows almost all year and the sheep and cattle can live outside grazing on the lush, nutritionally rich pastures. The beautiful and varied landscape of South Canterbury offers a perfect location for large farms, where the animals are free to roam through pastures and woodland, in a completely natural life, and with the abundance of grass allows the livestock to graze all year round. All our beef and lamb is free-range, grass-fed and raised naturally by our family of passionate New Zealand farmers. Our climate is perfect for free-range grazing, delivering meat with distinct health and nutritional benefits. A temperate climate also means animals do not need energy-intensive housing during the winter months.
