Hugh Herbert farms mix of poultry pigs and land
Actor Hugh Herbert owns two farms in California's San Fernando Valley. One sheepishly large 280 acre spread holds cattle and pigs while a smaller 10 acre plot features a rock floor house with a central fishpond. His poultry venture faltered as he grew attached to 100 pedigreed chickens and 490 turkeys. An odd pig venture led to a town constable catching him after he claimed to buy pies and the local justice revealed he held the region's finest pigs.
