Description
Our Heritage breed Tamworth pigs are raised on pasture until ready for the table.
Moved weekly, these pigs spend their lives doing what pigs love to do – eating grass/bugs/worms (basically anything they can find in their temporary paddock), rooting around, enjoying their wallows and playing.
Our pigs are born and raised entirely on our farm and help us regenerate degraded pasture by removing troublesome weeds like blackberries and serrated tussock from our farm.
The Tamworth breed is considered quite distant genetically from commercial swine and is an excellent breed for regenerative practices as they’re active, sociable pigs that do well on forage.
We aim to process our pigs around 80kg live weight which will yield approximately 50kg of pork to be butchered for the table.
