Search by Breed Tamworth

Tamworth pigs are one of the oldest heritage breeds, originally from England and later refined in Ireland. Known for their striking reddish-gold coats, Tamworths are prized for their exceptional bacon-quality pork, natural foraging ability, and hardiness. They are especially suited for pasture-based systems, thriving on grass, roots, and minimal supplemental feed.

Long-bodied and active, Tamworths are excellent foragers with strong mothering instincts. Their ability to thrive outdoors in various climates, combined with their flavorful, lean meat, makes them a favorite among sustainable and traditional farmers.
