2010 - THINK PIGS and BEAT THE CREDIT CRUNCH ....2010 with all the doom and gloom it is fast becoming very clear that the following three things matter more than anything else... 1. The quality of life we live....there is more to life than simply work....work.....work and nothing else only to find out too late that quality of life we lead is not what it should be with stress and ill health taking over your life..... 2. The quality of the food we eat and feed our children.....it is not just a case of eating for eatings sake but much more a case of 'where does our food come from?' and 'How are the animals we keep and breed really fed and kept?'..... 3. How we all survive the 'Credit Crunch' .....without falling into an abyss of gloom and despondency. It is so much better to live life with a smile on your face

THE SITE FOR RARE BREED PIG LOVERS

WHERE HAPPINESS IS PIG SHAPED

If you are interested in pigs then this is the site for you. Whether you keep pigs yourself, are thinking about keeping pigs or just love pigs because they are such intelligent, friendly and adorable animals we hope that you will visit this site often. You may even want to visit our farm in person. At 'Pig Paradise' we keep a total of nine different breeds of pig which we selectively breed according to demand. These include the seven British rare breeds that are recognised by the Rare Breeds Survival Trust (RBST) and the very popular 'Oxford Sandy & Black' that is known as a 'reconstituted breed' plus the New Zealand 'Kune Kune'. We are also very pleased to announce that the ‘Curly Coated’ pigs we brought in from Austria and Hungary (see above) are all being herd book registered by the British Pig Association using the final herd book names used by the ‘Lincolnshire Curly Coat’ – A fantastic idea that came about after much research by Marcus Bates (Chief Executive BPA). It has been a long and sometimes difficult task organising the herd book and registration due to difficulties confirming ear tag numbers with the Austrians and Hungarians during a period when Tony York has been seriously ill in hospital but it has been worth it in the end.

‘THANK YOU’ TO EVERYONE

Tony would like to publicly thank everyone (not least of all Carron) for all the support, help and kindness shown whilst Tony was in hospital – twice during 2009 for two major hip operations

Thanks to many kind messages and some remarkable surgery Tony is now once again fit and smiling whilst looking forward to a ‘Happy’ rather than ‘Hippy’ 2010

‘Thanks’, of course, to all the pigs as well!!

Perfect location and a truly fantastic setting that is easy to get to no matter where you live. The major motorways from the Midlands, South Wales, London, the Home Counties, the South Coast and the South West make travelling from such locations a comfortable day trip although many course members in these areas, as do those from abroad and further distances, combine a fabulous course day amongst the Rare Breed Pigs with a short weekend break in a most beautiful part of the UK recharging their batteries with a week-end never to be forgotten.
