Swannington Farm to Fork

About the animals

We have three hundred outdoor Landrace cross Duroc sows. The sows live in arks on grass covered light land. Piglets are grown on in outdoor, straw based kennels with adlib food, water and plenty of fresh air. They are fed on a cereal based diet with no growth promoters or antibiotics.

The three hundred North Country mules are crossed with Texel tups and the lambs are finished on a clover sward. Beef cattle are predominately Aberdeen Angus cross; the carcasses are hung to maximise the natural tenderness and flavour.

Free range chickens come from Jason Peart at Hindolveston where the chickens roam around the farmyard - truly traditional poultry fed on wheat grown and milled on the farm.
