History

Tim Wilson came from a farming background but initially dealt in antiques and property development.^[4] He acquired an old farm in Nottinghamshire and kept three saddleback pigs there to make good use of the pigsty.^[4] When they were grown and slaughtered, he bought three gilt Tamworth sows, Milli, Molly and Mandy and a Tamworth boar named Dai Bando.^[5] These bred quickly and so he soon had an abundance of pork.^[4] He learnt how to make sausages and, in 1998, his friend Anne Wilson started a stall at the Borough Market selling his sausages.^[4] The stall was successful and became a permanent outlet.^[4] Chef Paul Hughes then joined the business, bringing expertise in charcuterie and, together, they opened a butcher's shop in the Marylebone district of London.^[4] The business continued to prosper and in 2012 had grown to three farms, five shops and a series of cookery books.^[6]

Farms

The farms are all in the Vale of Pickering.^[3] Tim Wilson lives at Grange Farm in Levisham where 280 acres of crops are grown as fodder and 1500 sheep are grazed in the North York Moors National Park. At Blansby Park Farm, which used to be part of the Forest of Pickering, the livestock is 500 pigs and more sheep, while 140 head of longhorn cattle are raised at the East Moor Farm, near Wykeham.^[6] The pork, lamb and beef steaks from this livestock are supplied to restaurants wanting high-quality meat such as Hawksmoor in London.^[7]
