Herd of Traditional Free Range Pigs and Home to our Poultry within the North Yorkhire Moors National Park
Welcome to our website. We are a small tradional breeds farm set within the beautiful North Yorkshire Moors National Park. We uphold the highest standards of husbandry so all our animals are happy and healthy, fed on the best quality natural diet. We breed Old Spot and Welsh pigs to grow on to produce the finest free range Rare Breed Pork which will shortly be on sale via our new online farmshop, order your 2008 Christmas Goose or Free Range Turkey as we will be selling out fast..
We breed and sell a range of live Poultry at Point of Lay. See our Yorkshire Poultry pages.
We adopt traditional farming methods, keeping the traditional breeds going by producing a small number of Birth Notified Pedigree Old Spot stock for future breeding purposes. We do not aspire to become a commercial farming unit, we choose to work with traditional breed pigs to promote their establishment within the countryside. Our breeding pigs are outdoors for most of the year, we bring them indoors and farrow them in purpose built loose boxes with a creep area for the piglets, they all have plenty of room to exercise and we keep the piglets with their mothers for eight weeks, giving them the best start in life as nature intended. Our Pedigree Old Spot Sows are excellent mothers and we have high rates of success with minimal need for medical treatment intervention. Happy healthy pigs that have a first class lifestyle. We have created our Keeping Pigs page to provide insight for the novice pig keeper and to show you all how we care for our pigs from start to finish.
All our pigs, just like our Poultry are fed on the highest quality GM free natural cereal diet, they get to forage in grass paddocks during the Spring, Summer and Autumn months, then they are brought inside during the cold Winter months as they do not like the harsh weather. Our pigs get loads of apples from our apple trees around the farm and live a happy life. We believe that their well being accounts for such exquisite tasting Traditional Pork. You may now order our Pork online via our new site, selling Christmas Goose and Turkey, free range Duck and our Rare Breed Pork.
When our pigs are inside they are given plenty of room to play around and they are kept very clean on good quality Barley straw which makes excellent roughage as the pigs also eat the fresh bedding. Pigs are very clean animals, they go to the toilet in the same spot and we clean out each week.
