This is our story

Owner Phil, farms rare and heritage breed pigs on Tasmania’s scenic East Coast.
Wessex Saddleback, Tamworth and Berkshire pigs freely roam 44 coastal acres in the picturesque hamlet of Little Swanport.
Our pigs are free to roam, play and grow at their own pace in several large wattle paddocks. Their foraged feed is supplemented with a nutritional mix of barley, wheat, lupins, protein meal, vitamins, minerals and local Tasman Sea Salt licks.
Our mission is to raise happy pigs and supply ethically-produced, flavoursome free-range pork at affordable rates direct to the public, restaurants and local butchers.

In the world of farming, not all pigs are created equal. While commercial breeds dominate industrial farming, heritage breeds are making a well-deserved comeback. These pigs, with their rich history and exceptional qualities, are a testament to the value of traditional farming methods. For Australian farmers, raising heritage pigs isn’t just about producing premium-quality pork
What Are Heritage Breeds?
Heritage pig breeds are traditional breeds that have been raised for generations, often dating back hundreds of years. Unlike commercial pigs bred for rapid growth and high yields, heritage breeds are prized for their hardiness, adaptability, and superior meat quality.
In Australia, popular heritage breeds include
Berkshires: Known for their marbled meat and rich flavour.
Saddlebacks: Hardy and adaptable, with excellent mothering instincts.
Tamworths: Often called the “bacon pig” for their exceptional bacon quality
