About Us
Welcome
Moorlands Bio-Dynamic Lamb is owned and managed by Vincent (Vince) Heffernan who is not only a 6th generation sheep grazier but also a noted expert on new forms of regenerative land management.
The farm, Moorlands, has been in the family for over 180 years. Moorlands is a 3,000 acre property in the southern tablelands fronting the Lachlan River. Its contrasting terrain includes lush green pastures, rolling hills and rocky hills where the only access is on foot.
Here we hope to give you some highlights of life on Moorlands.

Moving a mob of sheep to fresh paddocks
Vince and the dogs moving a mob of sheep down the road and through gates. Amazing to see how the sheep flow through the gates.
Moorlands Autumn views
There are a lot of poplar trees along Moorlands’ rivers and during autumn they turn a wonderful golden yellow. This short clip shows the trees closer to the homestead starting to turn while the trees out in a back paddocks are already golden.
Moorlands dogs working

Moorlands back shed and yards
Here is a brief flyover and look at the shed and yards located out the back of Moorlands. Its autumn so you’ll see the leaves on the poplars by the river have turned golden.
