Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge is a non-profit that provides a forever home to farm animals rescued from abuse, neglect and abandonment. Located in Pittsboro, North Carolina The Refuge has been in operation since 2012 and has provided a safe haven for hundreds of vulnerable animals over the past 14 years, including goats, sheep, chickens, turkey, ducks, geese, cows, and one guinea fowl named Frizzle.

With this special 5K trail run, you can help us raise funds for Phase 2 of The Pig Project, a campaign to build infrastruture so we can provide rescued pigs with a forever home. 

In addition to winding you through our existing sanctuary, the running path includes access to our new land where future rescued pigs will reside. Immediately following the official 5K, we will host a family-friendly Fun Run. During the Fun Run, everyone can travel at their own pace to our new pig habitat, where a tour guide will share our vision of the new pig homes.

Join us for this fun event with a piggy purpose!
