Dernwood Farm Adopt-a-Piglet
The adopt a piglet scheme runs as follows, you choose your piglet, you put down £50 and all we ask is that you commit to taking the whole animal at the end, which is typically 5 months from its date of birth. With your registration/adoption documents you’ll receive a form asking how you’d like your pig butchered. It's the ultimate in traceability and food provenance, you've known your bacon since it was born!
The cost is £7 per kg, this will work out at around £250-£300 for your pig, and includes all killing, butchering and packaging costs. Not included is any curing you’d like (bacon/gammon), which is £5 per kg, so if you wanted a 4kg leg into gammon that would be £20.
We’ll send you a photo with your documents and if you ever wanted to call in a visit you’d be most welcome
