Flying Pig Animal Sanctuary

6 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Cairo, GA
In 2003, we moved onto our 10-acre family property which had previously been a hog farm before my family purchased it when I was a small child. We began in 2014 as a little hobby farm lovingly called Hippie Chick N Farm with a couple pet goats and some chickens for eggs. Within the month we were asked to rescue an infant pot bellied pig, Ollie, knowing nothing about pigs we had to do a lot of research and found there was an incredible need for homes for unwanted pet pigs. A few months later we rescued a female to be Ollie's friend who turned out to be pregnant and had 6 babies on Christmas Eve, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet & Cupid. Dasher, being the first born and only spotty baby of the litter became Dasher the Flying Pig, the future sanctuary namesake. From then we continued to rescue pigs when contacted and officially gained 501c3 charitable status in 2019 under the name Flying Pig Animal Sanctuary at Hippie Chick N Farm, Inc. We are now home to over 100 beautiful animal friends. This includes pigs, chickens, goats, ducks, dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, peafowl, Jordy the Torty, a 100 lb African Sulcata Tortoise and a parrot in a pear tree. We have a small organic garden that we are expanding and we are working to become self sustainable, we compost and recycle and live a kind and compassionate lifestyle. Follow us on social media at Flying Pig Animal Sanctuary and also Hippie Chick N Farm. Learn more about this land: Come pitch your tent on our peaceful, 10-acre farm sanctuary, which is home to over 100 rescued animals.  You'll have access to a community fire pit, electricity for charging electronics, running hot/cold water including a semi private outdoor shower, a great view of the sunset and stars and you can book a guided tour on the 2 miles of wooded trails located on our adjacent 90 acre wildlife preserve.  Plus, we have many rescue animals who enjoy socializing with guests and you can book a private tour to hear their stories and get an up close and personal animal experience. We are a grassroots, family run, vegan 501c3 non-profit organization.  So when you stay with us, purchase extras from us, or take a tour with us, your money goes directly to the lifelong care of our beautiful and deserving residents. **Please note, First and foremost, this property is our beloved home, and the home of our animal residents. Many animals came from situations of neglect and abuse and may not want to socialize. If an animal comes up to you looking for affection, by all means give it to them if you so desire. But otherwise please respect their choice to not be social.

Weekend Trip to Crazy 8 Ranch & 4 Steps Horse Rescue
We've reached the stage in our life that we look for experiences beyond just a place to stay over night. What a wonderful place. So many horses to see and pet. Really enjoyed our stay, and hoped it help support their rescue efforts. Our site faced the corals. Early in the morning I was sitting have coffee outside and one of the horses made eye contact, then walked over to the fence to say good morning. Pretty cool.

Had a wonderful time on Pamela’s farm! I was able to pitch my tent right near a horse pasture and had a lot of open space for camping. Pamela was very attentive and provided water, a restroom, as well as access to the barn to spend time with all of the animals. The donkeys especially were so sweet. It was a very unique and exciting experience that I will forever appreciate!

Beautiful trees. The owls hooting in the morning while I drank coffee was magical. This location was close to where I had an important early morning meeting. The electrical outlet was perfect for my fan. Follow the directions to the letter. It is as advertised.

Michael and Audrey have really done a great job creating a welcoming, peaceful, clean and comfortable environment. They are excellent hosts.

Highly recommended for dog lovers or anyone needing to regroup! The space offers a perfect balance of privacy and accessibility. My dogs had a fantastic time exploring the property and were free to bark as much as they liked. P.J. welcomed their help while working in the yard, and another guest even played in the water with them. It truly felt like Disney for Dogs!

Ms.Marcia, or Ms.sweetie as I like to call her was amazing! Sweetest woman ever. Her and her family were very accommodating. The work they are doing here is amazing and beautiful. The ranch was clean and very well taken care of. They were very knowledgeable about their horses. She gave us a tour when we arrived and learned about all the horses and their personalities. I would rate Crazy 8 ranch and 10 out of 10, will stay again. Thank you so much Ms. Sweetie, we look forward to working with you.

Ms. Pj has a heart of gold and such a beautiful spirit. She is an incredible host with an even more amazing love for life and adventure. The environment is very well maintained and also close to quite a few big-time parks and restaurants in tally. Anyone would be lucky enough to spend sometime in her space. I know I met a long time friend at this spot and would 100% return.
