The Middle White is one of the rarest breeds of pig in the world, and at Tatton Park we have our very own – she’s called Molly!

She’s got a great character and really is my most favourite pig of the lot at work, so you can imagine how excited I was when she gave birth here at the farm.

I sat with her for most of her litter being born and it was an amazing experience. Being a farmer, one of my favourite jobs is to help bring new life into the world, and I still love doing that as much today as I always have done.
