EST 1843

The Union Station

In 1843 James Carmichael took up a pastoral lease of 5065 acres in Australia’s pristine and fertile south-west Victorian farming district.

Named The Union Station, the notable property soon became a renowned farming enterprise, recognised for its productivity and fine stock.

It eventually passed to one of the district’s pioneering families before being purchased by The Midfield Group in 2001, one of Australia’s largest meat processing companies.

The company had a vision to combine the property’s rich heritage and superior growing conditions to create a superior range of quality meat for a discerning market.

Exceptional Beef and Lamb

This family owned business’ progressive attitude has rejuvenated the Union Station property to once again operate as an outstanding station.  A passion for animal welfare, coupled with extensive farming experience and the region’s rich, fertile land, has led to the production of exceptional beef and lamb.

This is supported by the company’s ability to trace its product from paddock to plate, growing out its own stock on the clean, green pastures of Union Station before processing it at the company’s own plant and delivering a high-end product to the end user.

Now, just as Carmichael named his property Union Station, we bring you Union Station – a union between our many pastoral properties – and our premium brand of free-range beef and lamb.
