This is a post I’ve been putting off, for ages now. hoping things would change. With the crazy price hikes in diesel, and day to day costs of materials. With-in the business,
New prices as of July 1st will be.

Beef $3.50 per kilo (carcass weight) (no kill fee) (snags $ extra)
Sheep $75 (each min of 6)
Pigs $4.00 per kilo (skinned)
$4.50 per kilo (scold)
Coolroom hire (60$) weekly
+ travel costs ($1.00 per km) on first time out.
I know the timing isn’t great but I’ve been trying to absorb as much of the costs as possible but it just isn’t a viable option for me any longer.
I hope you guys understand.
And stick with small local businesses who need your support.
Cheers from all of us here at the chop shop on-farm butchery.
