Fat Pig Farm
Nestled in a narrow gully near the Huon River in Southern Tasmania, Fat Pig Farm is where Matthew Evans and Sadie Chrestman raise 30 grass grazing, dirt digging Wessex Saddleback pigs, a few pocket rocket lowline angus and a handful of dairy cows. The farm runs as a restaurant every Friday and on occasional other days, and we run hands-on cooking and gardening workshops on occasion, too. We've grafted an old orchard with new (well actually really old) varieties and planted a new orchard and vegie garden, as well as built a micro-dairy on site.
If that makes you hungry, you can sign up to our newsletter by clicking on the envelope and we'll let you know about events on and off the farm.
