A very small and mostly empty piggery - a small number of occupied farrowing crates and grower pens. In the farrowing crates, sows are confined for weeks in small cages on concrete floors - industry standard. Piglets' tails are cut off at a very young age without anaesthetic. The piggery is APIQ accredited.

A sign at the back entrance reads "Trespassers will be shot and thrown into the shit pit". Several sick and malnourished stray cats were found living with the pigs.
