Watermelons Are in Season—Help Us Keep the Herd Cool!
Summer can be tough on pigs: they don’t sweat, so staying hydrated (and happy!) takes extra effort on those hot Catskill days.
A juicy watermelon is more than just a sweet treat—it’s about 90% water, packed with vitamin C, vitamin A, and the antioxidant lycopene. That means:
Hydration boost in hot weather
Electrolyte replenishment after playtime zoomies
Natural enrichment (rolling, chomping, and sharing is half the fun!)
How You Can Help
Donate the cost of one fresh watermelon and we’ll add it straight to the pigs’ summer snack cart. If you’d like to give a little extra, we’ll scoop up a few more melons. Excess funds (if any) will be used for animal care.
Peace, Love & Pigs,
Todd
Please note: This is a donation item—you won’t receive a physical watermelon in the mail, but you will send a wave of juicy joy to the sanctuary. Any excess funds will go toward fresh produce or animal care as needed. Thank you for helping our pigs stay cool and hydrated!
