We love pigs. They are clever, funny, all different,
affectionate, and most importantly have infinite uses
in the kitchen. We keep rare-breeds as they are suited
to being reared outdoors. They are hardy, good
mothers, and although slower growing, the end product
bears no resemblance to the flabby insipid pork that
has made its home on our supermarket shelves; it's delicious.
Our breeding stock consists of an iron-age boar
(wild boar and Tamworth cross), Sampson, a Saddleback sow,
Delilah, and
a Tamworth sow, Sandy. We feed them and their progeny
a non-GM food, sugarbeet and whey. They spend
their whole life outside, in the woods and fields foraging
and rooting for extra tasty morsels. From this
top quality pork we make our own sausages, bacon, air-dried
ham, which can all be sampled during your stay.
We sell piggy boxes, which are a selection of
joints, sausages, bacon, and air-dried ham for £50. Or
if you seriously fall in love with them we usually have
weaners for sale for £40!
