Who doesn't love smashing pumpkins and talking to pigs?!
In this 20 minute experience, you'll get to participate in our morning pig feeding routine that involves, you guessed it, smashing pumpkins and feeding them to our pig family.
You'll meet our beloved Hercules and his girlfriends Tiny Pig & Pocahontas and hang out as our farmers give them some attention, have a play and show off some of their clever tricks. Our pigs are by far the smartest animals on our farm.
This experience gives an opportunity to not only hang out with the pigs, but do it with a farmer present so that you can ask questions and find out why pigs are so important to our farming philosophy here at Hosanna Farmstay.
Our smashing pumpkins pig feeding is $5 per person and runs for approx 20 minutes. Pre-booking online is essential
