Where it all began

Velthuis Farms Limited (VFL) is a family run operation that was established in 1959 and we are a Dairy and crop and recently a Beef operation. It expands over 2,000 acres in South Ottawa, Ontario and we are presently incorporating our third generation of family into our operations.

In 2017 after a visit at a high-end restaurant in Toronto we experienced fine cuisine. On the menu we stumbled across authentic Wagyu, which was being offered, upon further research we discovered the truly superior qualities and health benefits to regular beef. The Wagyu full blood line is the only breed that has intermuscular marbling, which takes the culinary experience to a whole new level for texture and taste. Also, it was clear that there was a lack of availability of full blood Wagyu while there was a demand from local meat connoisseurs and restaurateurs. We acquired in 2018 full blood Wagyu and started a full breeding program so we could source our own home-grown local supply.

Our focus is on authentic famous Wagyu beef genetics and raising it with the emphasis to top quality care and compassion for the breed.
