    The Our Cow story, with Bianca Tarrant

    Bianca Tarrant is the co-founder and CEO of Our Cow, an online paddock-to-plate meat business connecting Australian farmers directly with consumers. Built alongside her partner Dave, Our Cow emerged from firsthand experience with drought, bushfires and the volatility of traditional cattle markets. In this episode, Bianca shares how a simple idea to sell meat from their own farm grew into a national subscription business supporting more than 150 farmers in just over half a decade. She talks through the realities of building a values-driven business, the challenges and rewards of scaling, and what the Our Cow model looks like today. The conversation also explores what direct-to-consumer food systems mean for farmers, customers and the future of Australian agriculture.
