Here at Sloane’s we only purchase whole carcass beef from trusted farms and dry-age it ourselves.

Buying a whole carcass means a lot of work and also means certain popular cuts like Ribeye and Striploin are in short supply (sorry they’re so often not available!) A carcass of beef is about 400kg and that only produces about 8kg of ribeye or 12 Tomahawks. We regularly get asked why don’t we just buy more? But to keep the quality we feel we need to buy whole carcass only and we leave the cryovac bags of wet aged meat to the importers.

What is it?

Permaculture farming is working with what you naturally have, and giving back in order to get the best returns.

The term permaculture loosely refers to a sustainable design system that applies features and principles observed in natural ecosystems to the development of human settlements, in this case specifically farms.

This in turn explains why it was originally coined from the phrase ‘permanent agriculture’. To put it simply, permaculture farming is working with what you naturally have, and giving back in order to get the best returns.

Benefits of permaculture farming

Over the past several decades, the use of agricultural chemicals has drastically increased, affecting our climate in many ways. Therefore, many have turned to the philosophy of permaculture farming to help combat this change.

In addition to being environmentally friendly, permaculture farming is self-supporting and efficient. Permaculture in itself is a form of recycling. It uses and re-utilises whatever is available on the property.

Nothing in permaculture is wasted as everything within it serves a purpose. Crops are planted not just for profit, but to also help with the soil and local system. Even the insects that enter the farm assist with pollination.

The Principles

We purchase our poultry from a selection of hand-picked free-range and organic farms across Thailand

Permaculture design and practice make use of 12 different principles that can be applied to just about any situation, including farming. These principles highlight the importance of how everything is ultimately connected and focuses on small-scale, efficient and intensive systems that rely on the use of natural resources instead of fossil fuels.

At Sloane’s

Here at Sloane’s, our pork and poultry are locally sourced and come from the best high-welfare farms from across the country. These farms are either free-range or permaculture farms, offering the best environment to the animals. We believe that the high quality of our meat is owing to the quality of life that is provided by these farms.
