Lets Rootle

Where has the time gone. As 2022 comes to a close we can look back and know that it has been a trying time. We have all come through it relatively unscathed and we will be tried again. You have the determination and gumption to get through 2023 but remember to enjoy the journey wherever it takes you.

The trustees have been finishing the year visiting our independent producers, breeders and keepers listening and learning. It has been a breathtaking year with success stories of newly introduced bloodlines to Scotland, East Anglia, West Wales, Cornwall, Kent and the rest of the UaK. You will see a detailed synopsis in this edition of the Sandy Pig.

We have launched a free APP with useful tools to further help you and your pigs, Andrew will cover this in more detail, after all it is thanks to Andrew’s hard work, effort and time that we have this wonderful application.

The Trustees are reading your views and noticing the great work you are doing, it is overwhelming to see the enthusiasm and inspiration shared and the great OSB Pork that is being produced. Please know, the charity is your charity and we are here for you, to help you and guide you should you wish it. We take many calls and messages of help and support so please do not suffer in silence.

It is starting to feel very festive here at the OSBPG HQ We continue to think of more ways and ideas to help you. If there is something you wish us to cover in the next edition of the Sandy Pig magazine we will be very happy to hear from you.

Before you go and delve into our magazine it leaves us to give the last words to you. Thank you most sincerely for your support and your kind donations. We will be forever grateful.

We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and may 2023 be filled with good health and good fortune.
