Christmas Hams
Due to very popular demand we are delighted to be offering Christmas Hams again this year
Our Hams come from our ethically raised truely free range Heritage Rare Breed pigs
To fully honour the quality of the pigs we raised with such care and love, all of our Christmas Hams are cured in salt, sugar and water and that’s it. Not only are they “Nitrate Free”, but there are no flavour enhances, any artificial additives or preservatives whatsoever
The hams have been carefully smoked by our excellent butcher to perfectly balance the rich flavours of our pork with the natural cure

How does payment work?
The price for each ham is itemised on our online store. Please choose from the remaining available hams the size you would like.
Is your Christmas Ham Nitrate Free?
Absolutely, in fact we go so far as to ensure our hams are only cured in the most natural way possible, that is with salt, sugar and water and nothing else. They are then smoked to give that essential ham flavour.
Can I come and see how the pigs are raised?
Of course. We love having our amazing customers come out to the farm to see what we do and how we care for our animals. We are a customer certified farm so that means you are welcome anytime to see us in action. If you would like to organise a specific time so that we can ensure we are available to show you around then please get in touch.
How do I store my Christmas Ham to maintain freshness?
- We recommend storing in a Ham Bag and not in plastic containers or wraps.
- Rinse your Ham Bag in a solution of water and one tablespoon of vinegar and squeeze out the excess.
- Remove the ham from the wrapping and remove the bone cover and wipe it clean with a damp cloth.
- Place your ham in the Ham Bag and refrigerate.
- Rinse out your Ham Bag every 3 days to retain freshness.
- Keep your Ham Bag moist.
