Sponsor certificates will be mailed to the address we receive with your subscription. If you are gifting the sponsorship or would like any other name besides the one listed with the sponsorship please email us as well. You can reach us here. Please also reach out to schedule your private tour. Tours must be scheduled at least one month in advance.

About the Fam:
On July 3, 2018 Mama Dali, her 8 nursing babies, and her 6 older babies, and 2 other pigs were going to be killed that night if they didn't find a new home. A few years before that fateful day, the home owners purchased 3 pigs. Then they had to temporarily move. They rented their house and the tenants agreed to take care of the pigs, including neutering the boy. Fast forward to July 3, 2018, the home owners were home for a holiday and found way more than 3 pigs. There were 17. And the tenants said they were out of food and planning on shooting them all that night. Thankfully the owners contacted us to help. Because of the ages/sizes of the pigs and the urgent situation, we were unable to take them all in. We picked up Dali, her 8 nursing babies, and her previous litter of 3. We purchased food for the remaining 5 to buy us some time. Thankfully, another sancutary agreed to take in the other 5 pigs. We didn't know at the time, but Mama Dali was also pregnant with 10 babies, who she gave birth to at Kanda. Her first of 4-5 litters that were born in safety and love. We affectionately call the youngest pigs the Pipsqueaks and the older 2 litters the Fam.
