I wanted to breed for a High IV / Good Nature Shiny Farfetch'd (Yes I know, odd choice but I have my reasons), but when the first egg hatched a Galarian one came out, even though I used a normal one.
So is it possible to breed non-Galarian forms of Pokemon in Sword and Shield? Or do I have to import them from other games?
Isle of Armor
In the Isle of Armor DLC, there is a mini-game in which you are tasked find Alolan Digletts throughout the island. By collecting these Diglett, you will be given various Alolan forms (as well as a Kantonian form and Alola starter) as rewards for returning them to their owner.
Base Version
You cannot obtain Alolan forms in the base version of Sword and Shield, but you can by transferring Pokemon into the game via Pokémon Home (as long as the base form exists with in the Pokedex) or by trading with others players who transferred them from Pokemon Home
Alolan forms do existin the Galar region, as Alolan Meowth can be found in one of the camps. This camp is located on Route 7, and is known as “Renee’s Camp”
Yes, there is a way, but it requires a few steps:
This will give you access to the IV judge, which gives you information about the height of the IV per stat. To do this, press + in the Pokemon Box. Here's an overview of what the texts mean:

Best Answer
Based on this guide, which I verified and confirmed, giving a Kantonian Farfetch'd an Everstone will allow breeding to maintain its regional form.
However, this will not work for Pokemon where the base evolution, such as Pikachu and Koffing, do not have a regional form. When evolved, their evolution would be the regional variant that is found in Galar region (Standard Raichu and Galarian Weezing respectively).
Another thing to consider that the guide says:
