The Sustainable Pork Production Committee is putting together a BPA Pedigree Pork Recipe Book to celebrate all 14 breeds, promote conservation, and showcase the incredible pork our members produce. This book will be available to both members and the public.
Alongside delicious snout-to-tail recipes, we’ll feature member stories – how you got into pigs, why you love your breed, and details of your setup. These personal stories make a huge impact when promoting our work to the wider public. They help us tell a powerful story about welfare, sustainability, and the care that goes into pedigree pork production.
We need your contribution! Whether it’s a cherished recipe, a quirky family favourite, or a tale of how you first fell for pigs, it all adds flavour to the project.
Your submission should include:
Don’t worry about writing a masterpiece – just share your story in your own words. It’s better to include more than less; we’ll edit everything for consistency and readability. There is an example here here attached for guidance but if you need help, or have any questions, just ask!
This book will also explain how pedigree breeding and pork consumption support breed conservation – an essential message for reaching new supporters and customers.
We really hope you’ll take part and help us make this a fantastic showcase of our pigs, our people, and our pork.
