Title: HALF A PIG - 4 SALE - where to advertise???
Post by: nessbugs on January 27, 2010, 07:41:48 pm

Hi all!
I'm new to this site and am after some advice.....I'm wondering if anyone can direct me to some good sites where i can advertise my outdoor reared pork for sale.   :pig:   Is there anywhere on here for example?
I have 4 piggies going in to be 'done' on Monday but i'm struggling to find anyone interested in buying at this time of year - what with finances being tight because its January etc.
Its yummy meat - Dad was a Saddleback x 1/4 WildBoar and Mum was a GLoucester Old Spot.  We got rid of the first 2 pigs 2 weeks ago and they were snapped up but we just need to ensure that we can sell the meat when it comes back from the butchers on Tuesday. We are based in warwick.
Hope someone has some suggestions. thnx

Try your local paper  Or do you have a "village shop" where you could post an ad.?
