Great Taste 2- star Award 2024 Great Taste 3-star Award 2023 Great Bristish Food Silver Award 2023 Packington pigs are reared to the highest welfare standards and have been well recognised by butchers and the RSPCA Freedom Foods, as the best you can get.  All our pigs are born outdoors at Packington. Our sows live their whole lives outside with plenty of space to roam, wallow and be sociable. When the piglets are weaned, they are moved into large outdoor paddocks. Here the piglets have the benefit of well bedded, cosy tents, while still being able to run around outside. A happy pig is a healthy pig! At twelve weeks of age, our piglets are moved into large, naturally lit sheds with an outdoor area, where due to our low group numbers, we can ensure the welfare of the pig remains paramount. Tended by our farmers, the pigs are protected from the elements, with lots of space, natural light and natural ventilation, and deep straw beds. Our pigs develop and mature to produce the delicious meat you've come to expect from Packington. It may take longer to produce pigs in this way and cost a little more, but the results are worth it, and all our customers agree. All our pork is prepared, hand cut and packed by Jon Thorner's, a Q Guild Master Butcher. As a family butchery business, they understand the needs of the customer and their requirements enabling us to bring this truly superb product to you. We know you'll enjoy it. Rob Mercer
