Primrose Pork - Making Bacon Even Better

Pork, I had to really think hard for something interesting I can say about pork. After a bit of research, I have found some information to make you feel a little less guilty about eating bacon. Not only that, I've also found a great new farm to get your bacon from!

Contrary to popular belief, pork can be incredibly lean – as low as 4% fat. And with its high protein, vitamin and mineral content, it can play a key part in a healthy balanced diet. Pork is definitely better when its free range, something which Farmer Robert Moss specialises in.



Primrose Pork setup business in 2004, and ever since then has been producing top quality pork.

The pigs farmed are completely free range, they are born outdoors in the Essex countryside and remain outside. Although, they do have warm straw huts for shelter in the winter, and a lovely muddy wallow for the summer.

The pigs are fed on a high quality traditional ration, no hormones or anti-biotics. I love the idea that these pigs happily spend their time growing naturally on the farm, I believe this contributes to tender, succulent and delicious pork.

Primrose Pork has a farm shop located in Great Bromley, Colchester - It's certainly worth a stop by sometime.
