About Hillcroft Farms
A Legacy of Excellence
Hillcroft Farms spans 5,000 hectares in the 450mm rainfall zone, located 165 km southeast of Perth and 32 km northwest of Narrogin. It has been family-owned and operated since 1967 by Dawson and Greta Bradford, and later by their son Dawson and his wife Lisa, who took over the management of the farm in 2003. Whilst Dawson Snr and wife Greta continued to manage the sheep enterprises, particularly the UltraWhite stud since its inception.
In 2022, grandson Jack returned to the family business after completing his studies at Marcus Oldham College, and brother Michael is set to return once he completes his studies at the same college in 2026, signalling a clear and strong succession plan for the future of Hillcroft Farms operations.

Our Commitment to Quality and Welfare
Hillcroft Farms is deeply committed to animal welfare and quality assurance. Both the pig and sheep enterprises participate in recognized Quality Assurance programs to ensure ethical and sustainable practices are followed. Our focus on sound flock health and performance is evident in our disease-free status, including brucellosis and foot rot, and the proactive vaccination of all sheep for Ovine Johne's Disease.
