Welcome to Kew Little Pigs!

The Uk's leading miniature pig farm, with knowledge and passion spanning over a decade! 

Olivia 

My Daughter became fascinated with pigs after watching the film Babe and we would frequently visit farms and animal sanctuaries never imagining we could ever keep our own pet pig. Then one day we discovered micro pigs! Unfortunately after doing some extensive research we found that most micro pig breeders are based in the countryside – far from London. And so in 2010 we decided to start our own micro pig company so others within the London area could share in the fun.
With great excitement I completed my pig handling courses, read books and interviewed the leading breeders and authors in the UK. I approached the Prince’s Trust with my business idea, took part in the enterprise programme to build the business and was awarded the funding to start Kew Little Pigs.
Over several years we have researched the industry and have set up unique services enabling more people to have first-hand experience with micro pigs. We are the only micro pig breeders and company in the UK that focus on our exhibiting our micro pigs and educating people on their intelligence, understanding their needs and owners responsibilities. We understand that not everybody will be able to keep a pet pig which is why we offer numerous other services including private parties, visiting schools, bringing our pigs to events to meet you and also through our interactive website which has photos and videos throughout recent years.

Having always been an animal lover, I have always wanted to work with them. The opportunity came to work with Kew Little Pigs and I grabbed at it – it is not a normal job and I love it – no day is ever same! While working with the company I have gained my Level 3 Business & Administration and, to learn different aspects of the business also my Level 3 in Veterinary care. I have worked my way from Apprentice in 2012 to now being the manager of Kew Little Pigs. My main duties are administrative – keeping everything smooth running behind the scenes. You may see me on the farm during your visits as I love to spend time with the animals whenever I can. I also run visits and courses when needed.

I am the KLP Marketing manager.

I have always had a huge love for animals and it was my dream to one day work with them. Being able to combined my knowledge of the event industry with my love for animals is just incredible and since working with Kew Little Pigs I have learnt all aspects of running a small and successful business and animal welfare. Living locally means I have swapped my early morning commute with a peaceful walk through the countryside. Everyday is different here at the farm and I wouldn't change it for the world!

Hi, my name is Alice . Working at Kew Little Pigs is great fun and very rewarding and  I have been working here since August 2017. 

I particularly enjoy  spending time with all the pigs, teaching them tricks and developing their unique individual characters. I love working with animals and I’m planning on studying for a degree in Bioveterinary Science after my A-levels.

The team at Kew Little Pigs  are all so friendly and we all work very  hard to make the farm a great environment for the animals/everyone to enjoy.

Jen has worked with animals of all varieties for 18 years and spent 6 of those years working abroad in much warmer climates. Jen is currently studying a degree in animal rehabilitation in Oxford, has two pet ex-battery hens named Pam and Poppy who live with her at home and in her spare time, she can usually be found watching action movies, reading veterinary books or eating far too much at the local Chinese!

 

Ryan 

Ryan joined the Kew Little Pigs team back in October 2019. He visited KLP for the first time in August and fell in love with the pigs instantly, so he was very happy to be offered the chance to help out at weekends. When he's not at the farm, he spends the rest of his week working in a 72-acre patch of beautiful woodland in Beaconsfield which fuels his love of the outdoors. As a keen woodworker, he has a passion for creating things and used to run his own furniture business.
