This is a petition started to support mr wood in the expanding of his business. Mr wood owns a farm in the rural village of colburn, and wishes to expand his farm and have a pig farm. The planning was unforutantely denied first time round, however if we get enough people to sign, it will be a great help to him and his new venture. The pig farm will also be putting money back into the community. Signing this petition will ensure your doing your part in trying to help the British farmers.

The path forward has been exhausting and full of setbacks. Seeing this momentum grow reminds me why we started this fight for the farm despite the hurdles.

i agree with Mr Woods pig farm aslong as it doesn't attract many flies to the area and it does not smell.

Can only see this as a good thing for the area. This is a farm and Mr wood is a farmer let him earn his living in his trade. Mr wood taught my partner a lot about the farming which has helped keep him in work over the yrs. good luck Mr wood.
