Hog Haven Farm

Hog Haven Farm Hog Haven Farm is a nonprofit pig rescue and sanctuary in Colorado.

Our mission is to provide a safe environment for potbellied pigs that are rescued from situations of abuse, neglect, or abandonment. HHF strives to promote compassion for all animals, and to allow these animals to live happy lives without fear and suffering. We currently offer therapy pet programs across the Denver metro area, and our list includes memory care facilities, nursing homes, assisted l

iving communities, libraries, and more! In the long term, Hog Haven Farm aims to:

• Promote potbellied pigs as the third recognized domesticated animal and pet by providing education and resources to the general public
• Provide a safe home for rescued livestock (including potbelly pigs) to call home; a place for rehabilitation of livestock animals; and a welcoming environment for the community to become better acquainted with animals associated with food
• Educate the community about potbelly pigs as creatures and pets
• Educate the community about farm animals through volunteer programs, organization visits to the farm (schools, etc.), and allow community to work directly with the animals to learn more about them
• Educate the community about sustainable food options; farm animals are more than dinner, and educational programs are paramount in creating change within the food industry
• Create outreach program for children with autism (research strongly suggests that animals increase positive social behaviors with children that have ASD)

The proud face you make after a fun day cooling off in the “good” mud 😂 Hans has no issues whatsoever of applying his own sunscreen!

In only 3 short months, this handsome little old man is going to be 20 years old. He’s lived at HHF for half of his life and for the entirety of his golden years!

Hamlet is mostly doing well, though he periodically struggles with GI motility and moves slow with his arthritis. You can see his fancy ramp set up to get in and out of the house—we do whatever we can to keep all of our friends comfortable, safe, happy and healthy 🥰

For his 20th birthday, we would love to have folks send him cards. As August gets closer, we’ll post more info for how to make it happen! Let us know if this is something you’d be interested in with a comment ⬇️

Happy fifth birthday to Florence and Ruthie! 🥳

These sisters are Prim’s best friends, and the first pigs Prim ever met back in June of 2020. The three girls are very strongly bonded, always together. Florence is the most shy of the trio, and Ruthie loves to judge everything and everyone 😂 They are one of the best little families at HHF.

We have so many piggies with amazing smiles, but Turbo’s is one of our favorites. Just look at this happy boy!

Come see the piggies in person for our first public event of the year, less than 2 weeks away on May 31! You’ll be able to rub some bellies and interact with many of our rescued pigs—we can’t wait to see you!

Good morning, Groot!

This little gremlin and his friends have all officially moved outside for the warm season. He’s a big fan of sunbathing! Today’s going to be a great day for piggies to go explore 🩵

I don’t know how this is possible, but today is Primrose’s 5th birthday 🤯🥰

Prim came to us in 2020 at only 5 days old. She wasn’t nursing properly and needed an experienced human to hand raise her and give her a chance. Under our care, Prim began to thrive! One of the babies featured in the Hog Haven documentary, Prim found a pig family in sanctuary, and she’s still a big, bright light in our lives ❤️

Happy birthday, Prim!

If you haven’t seen the doc yet, you can find it streaming on PBS!

Raffi’s smile makes our day, every day 😍 He loves to hang out at the fence (along with Katniss) whenever humans are nearby, hoping for some belly rubs or extra snacks.

While we work hard to care for the pigs, they care for us right back, always making us smile and offering a healing power special to pigs. They are such magical beings, worthy of living happy and healthy lives 🩵

Happy Mother’s Day to Journey, our OG hooligan who became a mama in 2017. This lovely lady has lived with 5 of her kiddos since they were born, and they are a tightly knit family and so cute together!

This is the first time we’ve seen Madge in the pool, and boy is she cute!!

She’s settled in really well, and we let her explore out of her pen yesterday—she loved every second of meeting new pigs through fencing! Madge is scheduled for her spay later this month, and then we’ll work on finding her some friends 🩵

This is why we can’t have nice things and are constantly fixing fences 😂 Of all the pigs living their best lives at HHF, the “big babies” keep us on our toes the most.

We have reset this fence line numerous times, with the most recent adjustment a mere 6 weeks ago. Any guesses how much longer this fence will hold the hangry babies?

Our Story

It all started with a little Pipsqueak...

In 2014, founders Erin and Andrew adopted a little potbellied pig from a Craigslist ad--and the rest, you can say, is history! This little pig changed their lives, and inspired them to start Hog Haven Farm. In five years, more than 275 pigs have been rescued, and more than 100 have found their forever families! Hog Haven Farm rescues all breeds of pig, though most are abandoned, abused or neglected potbellies, once purchased as pets. Pigs are intelligent, emotional, and highly personable beings; those who cannot be adopted as pets live out their natural lives at Hog Haven Farm!

Our mission is to provide a safe environment for potbellied pigs that are rescued from situations of abuse, neglect, or abandonment. HHF strives to promote compassion for all animals, and to allow these animals to live happy lives without fear and suffering. We currently offer therapy pet programs across the Denver metro area, and our list includes memory care facilities, nursing homes, assisted living communities, libraries, and more!
