Happy faces meeting our 13 piglets last weekend! 🐽

A handful of our animals and tractor had an adventure to the pub last weekend to meet pub go-ers and helped raise some money for Ducks & Drakes with a guess the weight competition! Best guess went to 9 year old Georgie!

Maybe we’ll see you again next year!
