Welcome to Merrylea Herefords

We run a herd of 250 registered cows, in conjunction with sheep, on 720 hectares under the foothills at Cave, South Canterbury. We aim to breed meaty cattle for the beef industry with balanced EBVs, and to finish all progeny.

Merrylea has been established for 58 years and is now in the third generation of the family.

We invite you to contact us to arrange a time to visit our herd.
