Tallow FAQS
Tablelands Pure Beef Tallow
Our premium beef tallow is sourced from grass-fed, grass-finished cattle that are raised on our farm in the pristine Atherton Tablelands. We do not use antibiotics, hormones, BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy), or other unwanted additives. Our cattle enjoy a diverse diet we call the “salad bowl,” which consists of 27 different grasses, legumes, and wild vegetables, including sunflower, hemp, radish, and clover. We render our tallow in our on-farm butcher shop.
Additionally, our honey and beeswax are harvested from our own beehives before being sent to our cosmetics lab for final formulation. We are passionate about our tallow skin products!
