Boulder’s Cure Organic Farm has been fielding a lot of calls from panicked passers-by lately.
“People keep calling and leaving us messages telling us, ‘We think your pigs are out,'” said Maren Bosley, a farmer for the business at 7416 Valmont Road. “It’s nice that people care a lot and seem to keep an eye out for things gone awry.”
But the farm’s pigs are eating freely in the fields on purpose, Bosley said. For the first time, the farm is keeping some of its pigs instead of taking them all to slaughter.
Bosley said the farm has received at least 20 calls from motorists worried about the pigs in the field.
The farm uses an electrical fence to keep the pigs off the road and from getting into crops that can still be harvested.
