Høkildegaard country store

Høkildegård is a small farm by today's Danish standards, but with a diverse range of livestock; free-range pigs, sheep, and beef cattle.

They place great emphasis on animal welfare – ensuring that the animals can express their natural behaviors. They have plenty of space to move around and access to a varied diet. They are around their animals daily and 'know' them, thus having a good sense of whether they are all doing well.

After a good and free life, they send their animals off to slaughter and processing with a clear conscience at small local slaughterhouses in Vester Åby and Gudme. Here, skilled craftsmen ensure that the quality maintained at Høkildegård is also present in the final products. They pack the meat themselves – in sizes suitable for both large families and single-person households.

In their farm shop, you will find a variety of cold cuts and other smoked products in the cooler. They do not use nitrites in their products, which is why they have a naturally pale appearance. All standard cuts are frozen, but on slaughter days, you can get your hands on fresh meat.
