Ballencrieff Rare Pedigree Pigs

Here at Ballencrieff we offer an altenative to intensive farming.

We farm old-fashioned breeds of pigs in the old-fashioned way to produce a taste of yesteryear.

Our sows run outside all year round and the piglets are born and reared free range..

We mix all our feed, cure all our own bacon and make all our own sausages. But, it is what we don't do that is most important. We don't use any growth promoters or drugs in our pig feed. We let the pigs grow at their own natural speed, which is very slow with our rare breeds.

Our shop opening hours:

Monday closed
Tuesday 1pm - 4pm
Wednesday 1pm - 4pm
Thursday 1pm - 4pm
Friday 1pm - 4pm
Saturday 1pm - 4pm
Sunday 1pm - 4pm
