Some say the wind that picks up tiny saltwater particles, which fall on the pastures, is what gives Flinders Island meat that distinctive flavour. Others say it's the grass-fed, hormone and drug free, non-genetically modified livestock. It's this extra taste of flavour that has made Flinders Island Meat an acclaimed brand by chefs country wide. And it's the knowledge that old-style honest practices are used that keeps them coming back.

Brymworth Farm is a small family farm located on the west coast of Flinders Island. Being surrounded by wild elephant garlic inspired the dream of growing organic garlic. Realising the potential and longing for the desire to be self-sufficient, the farm has evolved into a viable business built up over three years. Brymworth Farm currently grows Flinders Island purple garlic and is trialling the Spanish rojo variety. In total, the farm has planted out 90,000 this year. Brymworth Farm Garlic will be harvested late November and will be available to buy via the website, or by placing an order on the phone.
