Raising pigs in your backyard is an excellent way to feed your family, and there are lots of delicious home made pork products that you can make from home-reared pigs. You can learn how to make your own ham & sausage – as well as delicacies like salami, chorizo and paté.
Raising your own pigs gives you direct control over your food supply and gives you access to meat of the highest quality. You might be surprised at how much excellent pork you could produce from an ordinary garden!
The aim of this site is to share knowledge and promote backyard pig keeping. We have many years experience keeping pigs. We’ve bred & raised pigs, processed and preserved our way to a very high degree of self sufficiency – all whilst working full-time and raising a family. You can do it too – so why not stop dreaming and start doing?
