Heggies pride them selves on providing food that is of the highest quality. When you buy meat from Heggies you know that it is completely traceable. That is why Heggies specialise in free range; such as pork from Gloucester Old Spot Pigs.
Apart from free range pork from Gloucester Old Spots they supply Herefordshire Beef, lamb, barbecue selection, cooked ham, duck breasts and home made pies.
If you can not call at Heggies at 4, Yazor Rd, Hereford or at the Farm Shop at Oakchurch Farm Shop, Brecon Road, Staunton-on-Wye you can order by phone for Mail Order Delivery in cool packs the next day. If you like pork YOU MUST TRY FREE RANGE GLOUCESTER OLD SPOT PORK as there is nothing as good to eat.
Gloucester Old Spots are
spot on!
That is the opinion
of Heggies of Hereford's customers who tried their first batch of real
Gloucester Old Spot meat and can't wait to get more.
Kate Gilbert, spent years 'on the other side of farming', as a chef so
when she married Jonathan and moved to his home, Forty Farm at Madley,
near Hereford, she knew what she wanted to do: "Supply top quality
real meat from free range animals, with a good quality of life."
and this became her quest, together with ensuring that Forty Farm stayed
farming under the Gilberts'.
Kate grew up living next door to George Styles, the man who rescued the
Gloucester Old Spot breed from disappearing in the Fifties, and so this
rare breed was 'imprinted' on her as the best to have - the traditional
Orchard breeds would suit her farm - quiet, inquisitive pigs that cannot
be hurried to the pork stage, taking 22 weeks on a free range system as
opposed to the 14 weeks achieved by modern hybrids indoors, but the meat
would have terrific flavour in the process.
