Border View Farm is a large working farm some of the farm animals include:

Pigs
The pigs we rear are mainly Landrace or Large Whites; they are reared from 3 week old weaners and produced specifically for the shop.
​
Sheep
The farm runs a flock of 500 North England Mule ewes which are put to the Suffolk tup to produce prime butches lamb for our own farm shop and the local auction market.
We also run a flock of 80 Dorset ewes which lamb through the Christmas period to produce quality spring lamb for the farm shop.
​
Cattle
The farm runs a herd of 70 suckler cows which
rear calves that are then finished for the farm shop. We also buy 2 week old calves from local dairy farmers which are then also reared and finished again for the shop. The ones not sold in
our shop are taken to the local auction market.
We have a variety of breeds which include Charolaise, Aberdeen Angus, Belgium Blue, Simmental, Hereford and Limousine.
