Gary and Leni established the Truganina Pastoral Company to accommodate the move to their new farming sites, Jeremiah Downs and Ardrahan located in Yeo, approximately 2 hours South-West of Melbourne Victoria. Both properties are natural grass fed for absolute goodness and remain hormone free.

Areas around the Birregurra – Colac farming district have a strong cattle, dairy and sheep heritage providing optimum conditions for high quality primary produce and agricultural investment. The farming district is well supported with excellent veterinary services and all of the associated industries required to trade and process cattle, sheep, and dairy products.

The investment decision to establish a new breed of Cattle into the Australian landscape was taken after extensive European on-farm visits for cattle selection and meetings with dedicated Parthenaise Cattle breeders.

A special thank-you to Laurie Harney and the Irish Parthenaise Cattle Breed Society for assisting us on our journey. The visits certainly reinforced our belief that Parthenaise Cattle could provide commercial viability if introduced to the Australian farming landscape.

Pure breed Parthenaise Cattle in Australia are now a reality, a young herd of well breed Heifers & Bulls have reached maturity with herd numbers growing at a steady pace. Australian pure breed Parthenaise Cattle are now enjoying their new home at Jeremiah Downs.
