Jake joins me to discuss the African cattle breed Nguni, their evolution in the African bush, their hardiness, tick resistance, legendary fertility and amazing eating quality. We also preview the upcoming inaugural Australian Beef Initiative to be held on Wolki Farm on 12th February 2022.

Jake Wolki is a regenerative farmer from Albury, NSW, Australia. He raises beef cattle, pastured pork, laying hens and meat chickens using holistic and regenerative techniques. He sells direct to his community via a self-owned butchery.
