KILDWICK’S Crowkeld Farm has taken part in a promotional video for Farms Not Factories, highlighting the benefits of keeping high-welfare animals and how they have been faring during the COVID era.
The farm specialise in native Hebridean Sheep, and British Land Race Pigs, the rarest of the rare breed pigs. The video, which is available to view on farmsnotfactories.org, uses the farm’s approach to encourage ethical living conditions for livestock. Farms Not Factories uses films for public screenings and social media. The organisation publicises the damage caused by factory pig farming to animals, human health, the environment, rural economies and urges consumers to only buy local, high welfare and ethically produced pork.
