The Old and the New1395 viewsThe Tamworth pigs are about to be moved to a nice grassy field in the four acre field. This will give us a chance to renew and replant their field. This photo shows the contrast: the green field in the back has recently been re-planted with a pig resistant turf from Hurrells.

Westbrook Enjoying A Beer1243 viewsWestbrook is a Berkshire pig --- what the Japanese call kurobuta ("black pig"). Kurobuta pork is highly prized in Japan, and we've decided to take it one step further and feed our Berkshire pigs the same diet we feed our Kobe cattle. This, of course, includes beer. Here Vic is giving Westbrook some nice cool beer on a hot summer afternoon.

How Do You Get a Pig in the Pool1143 viewsWe tried to walk him with a halter, but pigs don't like walking with a halter. We put him in the small trailer and when we opened the back gate --- well, he just sort of jumped into the water.
