Description


-----
PigPalooza is a brilliant and wonderful rescue farm for Pot-Bellied Pigs in Lower Bucks County. We visited this charming place during the Bucks County Barns of Distinction Tour (2014) last weekend.
----
All pigs are up for adoption, but why would any want to leave? Two or three pigs share every "pen." I use the term loosely because each pen has a beautiful little house, wading pool, beach umbrellas, and great food and water. No sign of Pig Poo anywhere; humans are constantly cleaning up after them, and groups of pigs can roam the property freely at various times of the day. There are hundreds of Pot Bellied pigs on site, in every size, color, and personality. I hate to say it but they all happy as Pigs in...well...you know!
-------------------
For humans the farm is cleverly decorated in a Pig motif. It's a joy to visit.

Oh, my, I would love to go on that barn tour. Such great classics you get to visit that way. And I would definitely love to have the chance to play with the pigs too. These look especially interested in you. I think they're contemplating tasting your camera. #11087873

My Pixie pig passed away this spring, good thing I don't live closer or I would be adopting. #11087967
