Final Rare Breeds show for Robbie

Final Rare Breeds show for Robbie

8 April 2020

IT’S the end of the line for some of Crossgar farmer Robbie Neill’s pigs in the final episode on Rare Breed – A Farming Year on UTV tomorrow night.

It’s December and the Neills and four other farming families are keeping as busy as ever, making preparations for the New Year and the continuation of the farming cycle.

Robbie is loading up the last batch of pigs in peak condition headed for slaughter. He comments: “That’s farming at the end of the day.”

He talks about the farming circle, being respectful to the animals, “spoiling them rotten” and giving them the best life.

He hand delivers his produce with his children, Connie and Angus, to various restaurants in the area and is looking forward to some down time in January when he plans a few trips away with the family.

Also features in the programme are families from Clogher, Lisnaskea and Bushmills.

Rare Breed – A Farming Year will be aired at 8.30pm tomorrow night.
