Hi everyone,
We are looking at venturing into keeping pigs for meat. In the long run we are hoping to set up a small holding as a business. Pigs are the animal we would like to start with, before expanding further.
We have acres of land which is all bramble, gorse etc (north Wales). Our idea is, is to start with a few weaners and grow them on, and eventually sell their meat. We are hoping to do this a few times before we decide to breed our own.
However, as we are on the isle of anglesey, in a very off the beaten track location setting up a farm shop is not really viable at this stage. (It is a long term plan).
We have heard of people selling meat online and either delivering it personally, or through couriers, does anybody have any experience of doing this, and if so do you have your own websites or do you sell through some sort of online market?
If anybody has any advice or experience, good or bad it would be great to hear from you.
Also any questions please do ask
Dave
