🚨🚨WE WANT YOUR TRASH!!!🚨🚨
Did you know that we can make good use of several different things that people normally just throw away? Just a few of those items are things like:
Vegetable trimmings - You know, that part of the celery you usually just cut off and throw away? Perfect pig food!
Vegetables that are a little past their prime - When you forget about them in the drawer and they go just a little bit past what you’re comfortable eating, as long as they aren’t moldy, our pigs will LOVE them!
Your Halloween pumpkin on November 1st when you’re ready to get rid of it. As long as it doesn’t have any paint, dye, candle wax, toothpicks (or any sort of non-food accessory that gets added to create your amazing designs), or other things like that, they go hog wild over them.
There are only a few veggies that pigs CAN’T have - Raw potatoes and skins, raw beans, onions, garlic, leeks, tomato and pepper plant vines, etc. if you aren’t sure, just ask!
If you live in the Fredericksburg area, you can put these trimmings and things in a bag in the freezer so they stay good. Just keep adding to it until you have a decent amount saved up and let us know. We’ll arrange a time to come pick them up!
We can also always use things like:
Those clear, quart sized containers (with lids) that the soup from Chinese restaurants always comes in, plastic coffee cans, plastic snack containers like what UTZ pretzels and snack mixes come in, things like that. Containers like these are perfect for mixing and preparing feed for the pigs.
We would love our local friends to set aside any of these types of containers and we can coordinate picking them up from you.
