Glen Vleis Butchery

Hormone Free Meat - Fresh from our Farm

Our meat quality

Our commitment to Quality

GA201256.jpg
Welcome to Glen Vleis, the family farm, abattoir and butchery located near Amsterdam, Mpumalanga. Since 1993, we have been dedicated to providing hormone-free meat, free from growth stimulants and routine antibiotics. Buy from us to support a family business that goes above and beyond to bring you exceptional meat.
Butchers you can trust

As a proudly family-owned and operated farm and butchery, we take pride in delivering quality meat to our customers.  We source our meat directly from our farm and have full control in every step of the process.

Hormone, stimulant free

Our hormone-free, growth-stimulant-free, and routine antibiotic-free meat reflects our dedication to quality. 

Own livestock

Our meat comes directly from our Simbra herd, a breed that is known for its adaptability, versatility and natural disease resistance. Through careful breeding and management, we strive to produce well-marbled meat that is tender and full of flavour.

On-farm abbattoir

Our on-farm abattoir grants us control over the entire process, and full traceability.  It allows us to minimise transportation stress, improve animal welfare, and reduce the risk of disease transmission, all contributing to the quality of our products.

Routes

Our events
3KM NATURE WALK

​Complete the 3km route at your own pace, or join the guided Nature walk hosted by Boom & Co to learn more about the beautiful surroundings.

Join Boom&Co for a guided meander through the pristine grasslands, over the rocky outcrops and around the beautiful wetlands of Glen Aggy, exploring the plants and creatures that call this hyper biodiverse area home.

During this gentle hike, we'll be looking for the pretty flowers, the special plants, the funny creatures and the beautiful birds, telling their stories and revealing their magic. Covering around 2.5km, the eco-walk is suitable for all ages and anyone with moderate physical ability.

5KM FUN RUN
 
5KM ELEVATIONS BIGGER SIZE.png

Our 5km hike/fun run is exactly what it says. All members of the family can come and enjoy the beautiful scenery of our farm and enjoy the open air. The route will start and finish at Glen Vleis, with 129m of vertical climbing, lots of jeep track and some single track, the route is just challenging enough to get all the muscles working. There will be one waterpoint on the route, so no need to bring your own water and snacks. The route is rocky, so strollers are unfortunately not an option.

Our events
10 KM TRAIL RUN
