Fleur Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I was just wondering whether people on here would be nice enough to head over to the Pigs are worth it site and sign the petition for pig farmers to get fair money for their piggies. I thought it would be the sort of thing that the people on here would like to do (am a bit nervous about starting a new topic) www.pigsareworthit.com let me know if it's too off topic. fleur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud9 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Thanks for bringing that to my attention Fleur. Hubby's friend is a pig farmer and is always complaining about the drop in prices and how it could mean he has to stop business. Hope this helps him and others alike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I joined up a while ago and had anemail yesyerday... They are having a mass text to radio stations asking them to play the track recorded by a group of pig farmers - 'Stand by your Ham' I think it is May 4th? - sorry, I'll go and check. Sunday 4th May - 12.00 - 2.00 - the site gives the text number for lots of radio stations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surferdog Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Signed. Just read The Farm by Richard Benson - it was heart-breaking to read how this family lost the pig farm that had been in the family for generations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mutrix Farmers Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 A perfect post for the Nesting Box. I think most of us care about animal welfare, we wouldn't all keep chickens and other assorted creatures if we didn't. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

Fleur Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 I'm so glad everyone is signing, I think keeping nour farming industry alive is so important, and its just heartbreaking to see people buying the cheap imported pork products when I know the struggle our own farmers have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
