Pigs that is!

Having read lots of books and forums etc, I would like to see some pig action in the flesh before progressing futher.

I am in East yorkshire, can anyone help

Thanks

Cruckley Farm is down your way. It's a rare breed centre, working farm and open farm. They breed top-notch Berkshires, too.

And Brompton Flock moved into Berkshire pigs three years ago (although they've been breeding sheep for many years). They're in North Yorks.

You'll also find a list of Yorkshire-based Berkshire breeders on the Berkshire Breeders' Club website:

I'm sure the other breed clubs will have a similar list.

east yorkshire covers quite a large area!! we are not too far from goole
we have berkshires, lops, mangalitzas, tamworths and mini pots

also cattle and poultry

Yes East Yorkshire is quite big!
I am at post code YO43

ISIS you have pm.

Sorry, just trying to help. The original post didn't say where you were or how close you were looking, so I thought I'd just post a couple of Yorkshire-based Berkshire breeders that sprang to mind given that I used to live at Skipton,

skipton is a long way from aberdeenshire, do you get home sick
some friends of ours live near aboyne(sp) stunning part of the world, mind they have much more snow than us!!!

I'm an Aussie and have lived in something like 40 places over the years. I'm a citizen of the world so everywhere and nowhere is home. I never get homesick.

I did like Skipton a lot, but couldn't afford land there. The Other Half is a Scot and I have Scottish roots, which is why we gravitated northwards.

I am slightly concerned that if I continue drifting northwards, having started in Australia, that I will eventually find myself on a small farm in the Faroes or Greenland or breeding pigs for Father Christmas at the North Pole...

the further north you go the colder it gets!!! remember that before you move again
