THE CRITTERS

Blue Jug Farm is home to a variety of farm animals, most of whom have been rescued.

Many people have asked why we have farm animals as pets.  The answer is simple.  Not only do we enjoy the company of our critters, but we benefit from their presence as well. 

The donkeys act as guardians of the property, and also provide us with a major ingredient for our compost pile.  The goats eat a wide variety of unwanted plant matter, including poison ivy.  The pigs help prepare new garden areas by rooting in the soil, which unearths rocks and disturbs insect nests.  The guineas, ducks, and chickens eat a host of insects, keep snakes at bay, and provide us with fresh eggs.

Most importantly of all, our critters are just sweet, loving animals who have the right to a happy life, and we're doing the best we can to make that happen.
