What The Papers Say 2014 .........

We usually do this at Christmas time - look back at what the press had to say about Walk The Pork , Large Black Pigs and what we get up to at Scotts Field Pork. Last year however Sarah opened a new shop in December and is only just starting to draw breath......so here goes a belated look back (in no particular order) at 2014 starting with Stacia Brigg's feature in The Eastern Daily Press.

Stacia is the paper's feature writer and a huge supporter of all things foodie here in Norfolk - this is what she had to say about 'Walk The Pork'

'Yesterday Scotts Field Pork kick-started The Brecks Food and Drink Festival by holding it's annual 'Walk The Pork' event at it's farm near Oxborough, an invitation only tour of the pig paddocks for butchers, customers and food fans.

In attendance was MP Elizabeth Truss, Secretary of State for Enviroment, Food & Rural Affairs, whose constituency includes The Brecks and who has long been a supporter of the area's food producers. (She said)

'It's a fantastic success story and just one of a number of success stories in The Brecks. What I hope events like this will do is help people understand the connection between the landscape and the food they eat.'
