Here at The Edible Forest, we try to raise our animals in the best way possible.
Our pork comes from slow growing old breeds, which means the meat is darker, more tender and tastier than that produced in modern factory facilities with the fast growing large pink breeds that are currently fashionable.
Our pigs all live outside, with easy access to all the things they need to be happy: food, shelter, shade, water and wallows. They enjoy a wide ranging vegetarian diet without chemical supplements.
We do not use hormone or other growth promotants, nor do we use unnecessary insecticides or other chemicals around our animals.
This way, we have healthy, happy pigs, which means better food and health for us and our customers.
Likewise, Annette's jams, preserves and pickles are made using either our own spray free fruit and veggies, or those we source from trusted friends and neighbours around the Manning Valley.
The ingredients are always fresh, local and seasonal, which means the flavours are amazing!
You can buy our produce at either the Wingham Farmers’ Market, or at our regular Tuesday morning market outside Bent on Food in Isabella St, Wingham
