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.


We still have three gilts left, and need them gone ASAP.
