• I have come for the last 10 years to see my dear friend Herr Professor Pig Botoskaya, the proprietor of The Piggery, and enjoy this very excellent experience in the North-Middle country of the United States. Even in Germany, we have not such stinkkäse or such comfortable deep mudpits as here!
  --Nettesheim Fatso Schmatso, Germany
• My pig buddy and and me come in from Fridley on our bike and side car almost every week to fill up and hang out with friends. Keep on rollin!
  --Rolly Szymanski
• Ay, but if this isn't the finest place for a pig to fill his belly, lay his snout, and awake to the rolling hills--and rolling areas. And pigs from all around the world to be talking to as well! I will return often to this magical place.
  --Seamus O'Swinton, Kilkenny, Ireland
• My whole family loves this place even though we are not pigs. We drive in to The Cities every year to eat at The Pig-Out, check out the Pig Hall of Fame, and buy Christmas gifts and bumper stickers. If you haven't visited The Piggery, you haven't lived!
  --Jenny Anderson, Sauk Rapids, Minnesota
• Like a lot of pigs, my person and I work hard running the farm. It's great to come out to a place where we can relax totally! She can relax in the human rooms, dining area, and spa, and I can let it all hang out, rolling around with friends, waving to her from my trough, trying my hand at stink-raising, and sometimes, after a trip through the Pig-Wash, joining her in the human areas or for a trot around the well-cared for grounds down to the river. I highly recommend The Piggery!

• As our big, pink bumper sticker says, "We got hitched at The Piggery!" The food was awesome, the pigs cheered for us as we entered and later gobbled up the edible confetti The Piggery gave for our guests to throw, the grounds were gorgeous, and everyone said it was the best, most unique wedding venue ever!"

                       --Bonnie and George Engebretson, Minneapolis

In the world of The Piggery:

• Pigs are never food
• Pigs are highly respected and are, in most cases, those who run farms and other enterprises
• Getting fat is healthy for pigs, and is desirable
• Most pigs love getting dirty and smelly
• Pigs are highly sociable and love a good time (though they cannot tolerate alcohol and do not drink it)
• Pigs sometimes live on their own; sometimes are paid salaries and supported by farms where they work; and sometimes live with people. They are never pets or property.

In the world we have created here and we invite you to join:

• The Piggery actually exists and functions (in our imagining and, if you wish, yours).
• We invite you to take breaks of the realities of the much much complex "real world" to play, create, and relax with us in this safe, fun, and joyful collection of imagined spaces and activities.
• We will tolerate no hate speech, prejudice, exclusion, or introduction of the limited thinking from outside this space.
