Oink oink

Norah

Excitement ahoy, as this season’s pigs are due to arrive at the garden soon! Last year we purchased two Berkshire pigs from a local breeder, to help clear a plot on the Kitchen Garden that previously contained a pear orchard. Norah & Nancy did an incredible job of clearing (and fertilising along the way!), before being relocated to the restaurant menu. Two more little piggies will feature this year before the plot is once again cultivated with kitchen garden crops next year!
