Two boars gone

Brock and Spot, two of our nine-week-old Berkshire boars, have just left for their new home down in Montrose.

It was a pleasure doing business with their buyer as he paid the original asking price of £55, even though I offered to cut it to the £50 we’re asking for the gilts whose sale fell through.

So, if you’re passing through or near Montrose, drop in on Charleton Fruit Farm on the A92.

It’s a family run farm with a dried flower barn, gift and coffee shop, and they’re a pleasure to do business with.

And if you’re wondering about those names, Brock’s head is marked like a badger while Spot has a black spot in the centre of his white blaze.
