With Easter fast approaching, we will be looking at a couple of our favourites ideas for the family gatherings! We would love to hear your thoughts and your favourites when it comes to the Easter weekend!

Ham is such a versatile Easter food as it provides a stunning centerpiece to the Easter meal but is also delicious cold the next day in sandwiches or salads- perfect when you have a number of guests over. Whether you prefer an unsmoked ham or one that has been lightly oak smoked, team it with our honey glaze for an effortlessly brilliant finish.

Our ham comes from our Saddleback pigs which are slowly reared to natural maturity, then hung for 3 weeks before being butchered here on the farm, and traditionally brine cured and air dried. This careful process ensures a fully developed flavour and texture which is sure to impress all of your guests this Easter. Pipers Farm hams are available cooked or uncooked, depending on how much time you have to spend on preparing your Easter Feast.
