One Farm, One Philosophy, One Unique Taste

Testimonial from Chef Al Brown

"One of the culinary highlights of my year, has been the discovery of a relatively new South Island based pork producer. Sue and Gus Morton of Waitaki Bacon and Ham are breeding 'happy pigs' in a healthy, hormone-free farm environment, where animal welfare is of paramount importance. All this care and effort directly relates to pork products of outstanding quality and taste. It has been an absolute pleasure cooking, eating and spreading the word about this first-rate producer promoting a 'Farm Gate To Plate' philosophy. It gets the big tick from me"

We have taken our business to the next level and are now processing our own pork in Timaru and have opened a new shop “Pork Pantry” – which supplies all things pork, produced by us on-site. Our pigs are killed in Timaru – coming straight from the farm in Oamaru and are then processed at the new shop – 100% traceability, from farm gate to farm plate. More>>

Working closely with a porcine nutritionist, a special diet was developed which includes seven different grain based feeds. This ensures our animal nutrition continues to be maximised.
