A Different Kind of Farm

Hi, it's Megan. And Scooby, and Betty. 👋 Some days there is so much to do that it's hard to do much of anything. It's easy to look around and see everything that's messy, broken, or impossible. I'm grateful for the quiet moments we can share that remind me of what's important.

We are well aware that we owe you a turkey update! Good news is we've been too busy working hard in this beautiful weather to put together cute reels..😪 What are their names? How many are hens and how many are toms? Who are they friends with? Are they still lil cuddle buddies? These updates and more soon, we promise! #turkeylove #farmsanctuary #friendsnotfood

Welles was very excited to get a surprise donation of food and treats this week! 🐽 If you want to send the residents a gift, check out our Chewy.com wishlist (🔗 in profile).

The boys are still having a rough time since the stress of their trip, and keeping them separated is hard on them, even if it's for their own safety. They can see each other, but have about 6 feet between their enclosures or they start challenging each other. Pele is happy to have them back, and we are too. 🥺 . #animalfriends

Thank you to everyone who shared in our excitement about Orson and Welles' adoption after over a year of waiting. Unfortunately, after transporting them across New York, it became clear that the new home wasn't a good fit. The stress of the trip and exposure to new pigs and a new environment caused them to turn on each other – something we had never experienced with them before. We are left to conclude that they remain unfixed, despite prior veterinary assessments, and we're working to address this for their own safety. They're back home, safe but separated, and we are heartbroken and frustrated. Though we hadn't planned for them to become permanent residents of our sanctuary, we are fully committed to their well-being for as long as they need us and are carefully considering the best long-term options for them. Thank you for your continued concern and support as we help them heal. 🐽 #pigrescue #piglove #friendsnotfood

Eat, drink, and be merry 🐖 We have some very exciting news to share soon, so stay tuned next week! 🎶 #farmsanctuary #pigrescue #friendsnotfood
