VSDC Visits Piggins and Banks: A Pig and Animal Sanctuary Guided Tour
December 6, 2026
Join VSDC for a one-hour walking tour of Piggins and Banks! Learn about pigs, why they're special, and how the sanctuary saves them. You'll also hear stories about each pig and how they came to live at Piggins and Banks. The tour fee is $35 per person and supports Piggins and Banks' mission. Meetup charges an additional processing fee of $2.55 per person. The tour will begin with a walk up to "Bert and Zeus' Neighborhood" and "Hulk's Haven" where you will be able to meet and feed (but not touch) many of the rescued pigs. They will provide the pig treats! Then we will make our way back down and head over to "Mary's Piggily Pleasant Pen for Friendly Pigs" where you can enter the pen and pet a few of the pigs that love attention. Next, we'll visit "The Lucky Lot," where the largest pigs make their home. As we pass the barn, you can see the horses (if they are not out to pasture). Finally, for the last portion of the tour, we will drive up to the north end of the sanctuary property to visit the "North Pig Pen." We will conclude the tour at "Nicky's Barn" where our oldest pigs spend their days in comfort. An added bonus: see/pet the rescue cats! This is an outdoor experience!
