The Ontario Pork Congress (OPC) Annual Meeting took place on October 20, 2020, at the Arden Park Hotel in Stratford, Ontario, with over 50 attendees.
At the event, Arnold Drung, President of Conestoga Meats, was honoured with the Ontario Pork Industry Leadership Award. Drung has been a dedicated supporter of the OPC for over 23 years. This award recognizes individuals who have made significant contributions to the Ontario pork industry through research, education, extension, or industry service.
The OPC also celebrated the success of the 2025 Ontario Pork Industry Council Hog Jog, held in conjunction with the Ontario Pork Congress. The event raised over $49,000 for the Stratford House of Blessing Food Bank, which supports individuals and families facing food insecurity in Stratford and surrounding areas.
