On this farm, we insist
the pigs live like pigs. This pig lives on a farm in Norfolk. It's allowed to walk free and
encouraged to live naturally.
Tesco has decided to promote less intensive, more traditional farming
methods. This is why we have now our Nature's choice label, a large variety
of different goods like fruit, vegetables, meat and even cheese and wine.
We are strict about every aspect of the animals'lives. For example we
make
sure that all the animals
receive a well balanced diet, without growth promoting hormones and
antibiotics. A vet regularly visits to check their health but will only
administer medicines in the case of illness.
The piglets are born in a large field and live with their mothers until
they are older. After this, they are put in a new field with other young
pigs - they are very social animals. Finally, they are moved together into
a huge, airy barn with natural light and a passage to the outside.
They eat like pigs too. Fresh water and food are always accessible but we
insist that more food should be put onto the pasture.
After all this hard work the animals are able to enjoy a high quality of
life. And this is evident in the high quality of the meat. In fact, most
people seem to think that our meats taste even better. But that's only
natural isn't it?
