Multi-Story Meat – Tales of a Welsh Hill Farmer with Andrew and Liz Baker

ANDREW AND LIZ BAKER TALKS ABOUT: * The Baker's Pig - Welsh Charcuterie and Smokehouse. * Creating a successful farm-to-fork food business. * Sustainable farming methods. WHO ARE ANDREW AND LIZ BAKER? founders of The Baker's Pig - Welsh Charcuterie and Smokehouse. They are passionate, self-confessed foodies who have transformed their love of pigs, wellies and the great outdoors to create a successful farm-to-fork food business. They create a delicious range of award winning air-dried, fermented and smoked meats on their farm, located on the edge of the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park. Andrew & Liz first started keeping Berkshire pigs nearly 30 years ago when they moved into a small rented farm in West Wales. Andrew says "Our main reason for moving to the countryside was to escape the bustle of the city and look for a better quality of life". Andrew & Liz reared free-range, Berkshire pork on the farm, grew their own vegetables and collected the chickens eggs. Life really was sweet, if not a little chaotic. Work commitments took them both away from pig keeping and out of Wales for a short while. After several career moves they settled back in South Wales and lived in Swansea. Liz says "We lived in a three storey townhouse with a garden around 10 foot square, before moving to an 11 acre ramshackled farm in Upper Brynamman". Andrew and Liz bought Ty'r Cwm farm in 2011. Over the following seven years they both worked hard to re-instate a traditional farmhouse property that dates back almost 200 years. Once owned by the Amman Valley Iron Company, Ty'r Cwm farm can be found nestled at the base of the Black Mountain. Although the land had not been farmed since the mid 1970's, local residents still have very fond memories of it as a traditional working farm. Andrew says “We have received help and advice from neighbouring farms to bring the land back into good order. Today, we are committed to running the farm using sustainable farming methods.” CONTACT ANDREW AND LIZ: Website https://thebakerspig.com/ [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://thebakerspig.com/&sa=D&source=calendar&ust=1774269988962310&usg=AOvVaw1R_trRak68_dB3TQnRaa_B] Email thebakerspig@outlook.com [thebakerspig@outlook.com] Talks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

Sovereign Project with Karl Deans

WHO IS KARL DEANS? We share knowledge on legal title jurisdiction, navigating the pathway most people don’t even know exists — structuring your Estate, House and Name to enable protection of assets, enabling clarity and authority to those who want to operate within their own Dominion. As an advanced estate planning strategist, I architect generational wealth, with hands-on expertise as a surveyor, property investor, and landlord, I inner stand the true meaning of real estate as I see what others overlook:. I don’t simply just buy property, through state controlled systems, we are mastering owners rights, all titles and licenses which you control. Our team shares knowledge how to master your Dominion, your Estate, House and your Name. Many people are being hurt financially, mentally and physically by the current way of living, many are now seeing it’s a must to find facts and to live in peace without fear of unjustified enforcement on privacy, rights and asset stripping. Now it’s a must.. KARL COVERS: * Legal title jurisdiction as this is the main area where people give away authority, rights and property. Hence why no one is Sovereign. * Splitting of the title, one of the titles being Mr & Mrs and why you do not control any of the titles . * The work being done with farmers, farmers that are truly working towards the pathway to true control of their farms, cattle and generational wealth * The remedy for farmers is the same remedy for everyone. * The system we think we live in is strong, only the strong minded will see it’s weakness.
