Our Farm
We started Dingley Dell Pork in 1999 to produce superb tasting, welfare friendly pork, with impeccable provenance in a sustainable manner. For us, as third generation farmers, it is about the animals and our relationship with them. It is about the land that we farm, how we take care of it and work with it.
It is about our families, our values and our aspirations.

Su - A dry-cured salami sausage.
Su is the ancient Anglo-Saxon word for pig. Pairs beautifully with a soft red wine.
Konnica - A soft, smokey Cabanossi style salami.
Named after the Polish cavalry - a salami of this style was hung around the neck by riders to eat on the move. Goes great with a cold beer.
The Origins of Salami
The production of salami and air-dried meats has been with us since Roman times when salting and drying was widely used to preserve fresh meats. At that time, salt was a commodity more valuable than gold - merchants would walk containers of salt from the salt flats of southern Italy all the way to Rome. It is said that this gives rise to the saying someone is " worth their salt " and is partly the reason behind the road building passion of the Romans. The drying out of meat was carried out in caves or underground structures where temperature and humidity could be more readily controlled - essential factors in salami production.
