Pigs

Livestock

As a working farm, our livestock is constantly changing. We aim to raise traditional breeds of pigs and have had Tamworth, Oxford Sandy and Black, British Lop Ear and now Gloucester Old Spot varieties..

Our Gloucester Old Spot sow, Rosie, has 13 piglets, all doing well.
Watch Rosie and the piglets here:

Our pigs are checked and fed twice a day by our volunteers. Their usual food is specially formulated pig food which contains trace elements, natural vitamins & minerals. This is supplemented with fresh fruit and vegetables which local people donate.

The pigs love rootling through the undergrowth for good things to eat.
