Sometimes we prefer not to think about where our food comes from. But at Freedom Farms, we’ve got so much to be proud of… carefully managed farms with healthy and contented animals. And it’s all homegrown right here in New Zealand.
Loving your food means loving where it all begins, knowing how it got to your plate and feeling good about every part of it. We’re proud to take you on that journey.
Welcome to festive eating season!
We’ve put together a guide for all things ham… our hope being that your Christmas Day ends up more relaxed time with friends and whānau… and less like the holiday episode from The Bear (iykyk).
Check out our go-to glaze recipes for the season, and some of the treats we’ll be popping in our trolley. Happy eating!
