Farmer Mary is inventing a new #muddymonday photo event! Here is FRANKLIN the former pet โminiโ pig at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. Sweet FRANKLIN has very recently discovered the joy of mud! He will be loving the big pig puddle out by the old tobacco barn once the weather warms up a bit!
๐๐๐Yesterday Farmer Mary saw him with the older girl pigs DAISY and PEG-LEG basking together in the sun under a huge pine tree in the back pasture. They are starting to form a really friendly group. Did you know that a group of young pigs is called a drift, drove or litter? Groups of older pigs are called a sounder of swine, a team or a passel. ๐The farm will be open again today from 10-3. ๐We will have lots of baby goats available as well as our other sweet animals. Share your favorite visit pics with Farmer Mary and she will post them here!! ๐Please read โYour Visitโ at www.winterpast.org. ๐Thank you for supporting a small local farm family animal rescue.
