Yeah thats the plan, grow in it for 6m then let the pigs clear it up again. I just need to decide what veg will work in the space then move when I have the pigs to suit. I definitely want it to be productive inbetween pigs.

Well the 2025 pigs have gone. Took them in Monday and collected the produce yesterday. Didnt go for chops this time wanted mainly sausage and bacon. 24 joints 60lb Sausage 40lb bacon joints, currently curing These have much less fat on them than previous ones. Could be the breed (Brittish sadle back X Pietrain) or could be that we managed feed better, or a combination of both. Now I need a plan for the pig pen in-between. Going to grow veg in there, just need to decide what.

Just a sarnie this morning before heading out fishing......wish I hadnt bothered with the fishing! Bacon, sausage, double duck egg

Shop bought.....but by this time next week I should be stocked up with home grown sausage and bacon again

Beautiful

Having our Xmas dinner today as we are traveling to visit family tomorrow. Roast turkey and Pork Joint ....both homegrown at Meadowview

Amateur butchery and dressing but the Xmas turkey has been dealt with.....

I cant wait to see Fury demolish AJ now.

Have a look for the original 'produce your own' thread. Think it got moved into fowl and feather talk for some reason. It had been going on a while, some good reading from all posters in there pal.

Surf and Turf pal. It wasn't planned, when I picked the steak up the king prawns were on the reduced pile

I have it like warm bread!

Poached duck eggs for lunch earlier simple with a bit of S&P

Looks decent that pal, I'd be happy with that meat Did you just get em as spring lambs this year and grow on for a few months? We have had 3 duck eggs in 3 days now and today one of the hens decided to lay a golf ball

That will be a couple freezers filled for you pal
