Pig on a spit
A: We take pride in raising three exceptional breeds of pigs, each known for its unique and superior qualities. We specialize in Oxford Sandy & Black, Tamworth-OSB crosses, and Berkshire pigs. These breeds are acclaimed for their outstanding meat quality, marbling, and rich flavor, making them ideal choices for discerning customers who value premium pork products. By focusing on these specific breeds, we ensure that our pork not only meets but exceeds the highest standards of taste and texture.
A: Animal welfare is our top priority, and we have implemented multiple measures to ensure the well-being of our pigs. We provide them with ample space to roam outdoors, allowing them to exhibit natural behaviors vital for their development and happiness. Our pigs are fed a natural, balanced diet free from unnecessary additives, supporting their health and growth. We strictly avoid the use of routine antibiotics and growth hormones, ensuring that our pigs grow slowly and naturally, which results in superior quality meat. Our practices not only promote the health and welfare of our animals but also produce a more ethical and flavorful product for our customers.
A: No, at Newbard, we pride ourselves on offering pork that is free from artificial preservatives, flavour enhancers, and unnecessary chemicals. Our commitment to quality means that any processed products like sausages, bacon, and more are made using only natural seasonings and traditional curing methods. This ensures that our customers receive wholesome, flavorful pork products that retain their natural goodness.
A: Our pork stands out due to our unwavering commitment to raising heritage breeds outdoors with ample space to roam, root, and engage in natural behaviours. Our pork comes from heritage breeds raised outdoors with plenty of space to roam, root, and express their natural behaviours. Unlike conventional pork that often relies on intensive farming methods, we confidently prioritise better animal welfare and sustainability. We avoid intensive farming methods, ensuring better animal welfare, higher-quality meat, and rich flavour. This approach not only guarantees higher quality meat but also upholds the ethical treatment of our animals. By avoiding cramped and restrictive environments, we produce pork that is not only flavourful and nutritious but also ethically raised. Choose OUR pork for a difference you can taste and feel proud of.
