We are a fourth & fifth generation Cornish farming family, producing high welfare pork within a regenerative farming system, here in the heart of Cornwall. All our pigs are born, bred and reared compassionately by ourselves here on our family farm.
We also grow chemical free wheat, rye, barley, peas, beans and triticale, which are mill mixed in our yard into feed for our pigs. All the straw that we use is homegrown too. All of our butchery is done here on our farm in our on-farm butchery by ourselves, with the help of Neil, our professional butcher.
Our farming approach has not only enabled us to cut our food miles and our plastic usage drastically, it has also allowed us to offer the most locally produced, and most traceable meat possible.
We are very proud that all of our butchery is done here at the farm, to what we believe is the highest standard possible
Our pigs are different. We have looked after pigs on our farm for over eighty years – four generations of our family have worked with pigs. That experience has taught us what a pig likes and needs. We understand pigs.
This ethical way of caring for pigs starts with leaving the piglets to suckle their mum for as long as possible. This extra time allows them to grow and develop a robust immunity.
A healthy immunity is important as it means that unlike most pig farms, we never have to routinely medicate our pigs. The diets are all produced on the farm using home grown crops. This very balanced nutrition underpins the excellent health that our pigs enjoy.
