Here they are! They have started to expand their range and have now discovered there is more to the woodland than their ark and the immediate surroundings. They all have their own personalities; one of the gilts appears to be the boss. #theforestsmallholding #Welshsmallholding #smallholding #smallholders #thegoodlife #growyourown #largeblacks #welshpigs #freerange #slowfoood #woodland

1st June dawned. Today was 'Pig Day'. Five lovely piglets from a local breeder. Large Black Welsh cross. We have 3 boars (boys) and 3 gilts (Girls). They appeared quite happy in the trailer and did not want to get out. #piglets #weaners #pigs #largeblackpigs #Welshpigs #strawbed #woodland #smallholding #smallholders #welshsmallholder

Well, its the Smallholders and countryside Spring Fayre at the RWAS in Builth Wells. I wnet off to have a look around, while he manned the stall. 'Dont spend too much' was ringing in my ears. A small Acer tree was calling me to take it home, so what could i do... He seemed fine with the purchase of my tree; he had just bought five piglets. #Wales #RWAS #Builthwells #Springfair #smallholdiersfair #smallholder #smallholding #trees #japanesemaples #Acers #piglets #pigs #large
