OGMORE BY SEA
Mike Larkin Gundogs

Mike Larkin of Ogmore by Sea was asked by the Labrador Club of Wales to pick a team to represent them at the B.A.S.C. team challenge held at Sherborne Castle Country Fair, Dorset.

B.A.S.C. stands for The British Association For Shooting And Conservation.

Eight teams were entered...
Cornwall Field Trial Society
The Golden Retriever Club
Westward Gundog Society
South Eastern Gundog Society
West Of England Labrador Club
West Dartmoor Working Gundog Club
Purbeck Shooting School Gundogs
The Labrador Club of Wales

The team finished in second place, but the individual dog gaining the most points and being crowned top dog was Mike’s F.T.CH Larki Style.


Field Trial Champion Larki Style is home bred and trained and has won too many titles to mention. The team was kindly sponsored by GenSet plc of Port Talbot.

SOUTHERNDOWN
Slade Farm Organics well bred meat
from Wales


Nestled on the spectacular Heritage Coastline of the Vale of Glamorgan, Slade Farm is an organic farm where care for the environment and animal welfare always come first. Pigs, cattle and sheep are bred at Slade Farm, then reared slowly and naturally, ensuring maximum flavour is enjoyed.

Owners Peter and Rosamund Davies are totally in tune with the land, the seasons and the wellbeing of the animals. All meat that is produced at Slade Farm benefits from being additive-free and only feed grown on the farm is fed to the animals.

Having won a prestigious national environmental award for the way in which Slade Farm is managed, the quality is evident in every joint, chop of steak that carries the Slade Farm name. As well as traditional joints and cuts, sausages, bacon and a small range of farm-produced charcuterie are also available.

Produce is available seven days a week, direct from the farm.

The pigs at Slade Farm Organics are Gloucester Old Spots, one of the heritage rare breeds of Britain, renowned for their character, health and great flavour when cooked.

All animals spend as much time outside on the fields as possible and their welfare is paramount when being sent to be processed, travelling as short a distance as possible.

As with everything at Slade Farm Organics, the ultimate test is in the eating. Peter and Rosamund hope all their customers will agree; this is truly ‘well bred meat from Wales’.
