MERUNGIE is a 5th generation sheep property covering just under 800 acres. We pride ourselves on producing prime quality grass feed lamb. The land and our animals are our passion. Over the past 17 years we have undertaken extensive tree planting, planting over 40,000 native trees and bushes creating tree lanes bordering each paddock which brings a huge array of bird life and native animals to our property whilst offering protection from the elements for our stock.
