Your questions, answered straight from the paddock

Our pigs live outdoors their whole lives. They're never housed indoors, and we don't use farrowing crates. We don't castrate: boys are processed at four to five months, and girls are grown out to eight or nine months. See how we raise our pigs and end of life.

We open online ordering from time to time, when processing is coming up, such as Christmas hams or when we have several head of beef to process. Join the notify list and we'll let you know when orders open. When we have stock, our pork, beef, lamb, goat and smallgoods are also sold at the Fingal Post Office, in the centre of Fingal.

Choose your hams, pick a collection point and pay a $50 deposit per ham. If we can't supply or deliver your order, or we change your collection date or place and it doesn't suit you, we'll refund your deposit in full within a week. If an order isn't collected, the deposit is forfeited. This doesn't affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. Hams are $44/kg and the balance is paid at collection, once we've weighed your ham. We've sold out early the last couple of years, so order early. Orders close Friday 18 December unless sold out prior. Deliveries Saturday–Sunday 19–20 December. Delivery times will be announced closer to the date. See Christmas hams.

We process a few times a year, so prices are set for each batch. See the guide prices for beef. Register your interest and we'll send the details when the next processing dates are set.

Pickup and delivery times will be emailed to buyers and posted on Facebook once confirmed.

At the Fingal Post Office, in the centre of Fingal, open Mon to Fri 9am to 3:30pm. Bring a cooler bag! Christmas hams have their own collection points around Tasmania. Get directions

Each extra shooting adult (3rd and up) is $55 a night (max 8 shooters, 10 guests per group, plus up to 4 children under 5), and youth shooters aged 14 to 17 with their parent or guardian are $22 a night.

All prices include GST.

Every shooter needs a current firearms licence and insurance (for example SSAA membership), and must do our site induction. Hunting is available year round. Each hunter needs their own current firearms licence. Game ducks and brown quail can only be taken in their open season, and you need a game licence for them. A game licence is also needed if you take wallaby or deer off the property (carcasses, meat, skins or trophies). If you plan to take a possum off the property, check with NRE Tasmania whether you need a game licence first. See hunting and our booking terms. Bring proof of current public liability insurance, for example an SSAA membership card. We'll sight it at induction along with your licences.

Yes. If you cancel more than 7 days before your booked date, we'll refund you within a week, less a cancellation fee: $55 plus 2.2% of the booking total for hunting, or $22 plus 2.2% for camping only. If you cancel within 7 days of your booking start date, or don't turn up, there's no change-of-mind refund. This doesn't affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, or a refund or new date if we cancel. Hunting stays: see the hunting booking terms. Camping-only stays: see the camping booking terms.

At Tower Hill, in North East Tasmania. We own our Pig Creek farm and lease Fonthill Farm next door (more about the farm). It's a working farm, so it isn't open for drop-in visits. Read about the farm.

No. It's a working farm and not open for casual visits. Workers may be offsite at times on deliveries, collecting stock, transporting livestock, packing meat, sorting mail at the Post Office, and the like - but someone is usually on site. Guests may already be here for camping or hunting, and the whole farm can have active shooting at any time. Booked activities and arranged pickups are fine; please don't turn up unannounced.

We're open to hearing from people who'd like to run their own enterprise on part of the land. See Share the farm.
