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)
