Autumn Acres is located in Minerva, Ohio. We raise American mini pet pigs in a safe and loving environment. All of our pigs are loved and cared for; and we work hard to give each one of them time and attention everyday. The pigs are part of the family.
We are passionate about providing pig lovers with a healthy mini pet pig; and we also help people understand their beloved pig, pig behaviors and the desired, proper home environment.
While growing up in the city of Warren, Ohio, I didn’t have much opportunity to be around farms; but I still have loved pigs my entire life. In 2003 I married my husband, Nick, and we moved to Minerva, Ohio. A year later, we got our first pig, Oscar; and he was the love of our lives. Unfortunately, we didn’t know what to look for in a breeder, so we ended up purchasing him from an irresponsible breeder. This breeder inbred and starved Oscar to keep him small; and therefore, he only lived for two years. We were so heartbroken and learned a huge life lesson: Never again would we choose another pet without doing a lot of research!
The health and happiness of our mini pet pigs always come first, and we work hard to make each mini pet pig a wonderful pet. A healthy mini pet pig and a happy home are our top priorities!
Lorna Macfarlane2023-11-12In June of this year, I had to say goodbye to my beloved piggy. I was fortunate we had a good, long, amazing life together but the loss is tremendous and the grief is heavy. I found Autumn through the American Mini Pig Association website by pure chance and while I was having an especially tough day not long after Barnaby passed. I couldn't believe she existed. All of a sudden, it was as if I had found a glimmer of hope that I didn't have to be without another piggy and not only would I be able to experience the love and companionship of a piggy again, but the information she provides before, during, and after adoption was something I'd never seen before. I had a piggy, but I had to learn everything mostly alone and I am still amazed by how much work Autumn puts into making sure that piggy parents are set up for success. The healthcare she provides prior to adoption is second to none - the training, including crate training and litter box training is like someone handing you months of your life back AND an automatic stress reliever. Babies are tough! But Autumn not only educates parents and hopeful parents but ensures that no stone is left unturned when it comes to understanding how to raise a pig. I didn't have an "Autumn" when I adopted my boy all those years ago and my experience adopting the 2nd time around has been incredible. I would absolutely encourage everyone to take advantage of what Autumn offers, including visiting the farm so you can meet the piggy parents and see the piglets. Watch her videos - ask questions - and when Autumn says she's there to support you, believe her. We might not get everything right, and that's ok, but knowing I have Autumn in my corner has made adopting my new little boy so much less daunting and without even knowing it, finding her and going through this process has helped me to grieve the loss of my Barnaby. I am so happy I found her and bringing our baby home was like a dream. I can't believe I can hear little hooves and snorts again but knowing I have a healthy little man was a #1 priority for me and I don't have to think twice about it - all thanks to Autumn.
Bryon Campbell2023-11-08We just got our mini pig Owl from Autumn and the experience was absolutely incredible. Autumn was very professional and has a vast knowledge of mini pigs. We looked for several months before we decided on Owl. During the search process we looked into many breeders and Autumn Acrs was by far the best option. Autumn did not hesitate in answering any of our questions and we had many. She replied promptly and was always respectful. I will recommend anyone that is thinking about adding a mini pig to their family to contact Autumn Acres. Thank you Autumn for making this an amazing experience!
Jazmaine Mayo2023-11-07I don’t know how I can put my appreciation and gratitude into words. I’ve been wanting to have a mini pig for years now, and honestly every website and person I’ve spoken to never felt concern, loving, understanding, or knowledgeable. When I found Autumns page I knew from the start this was the place for me. She provides tons of information and the best part about it is once’s your approve and become a member of her information classes you have access to her and the lessons forever. Autumn is just the best and I couldn’t ask for a better mini pig breeder. I love how contacting her is not a hassle and she responds very quickly. Her home, family, and farm is so adorable. I can’t say thank you enough!! I love my Baby Roo!
Elizabeth Stark2023-10-23Autumn Acres Mini Pet Pigs is THE most humane, caring, loving, transparent pig breeder out there. What you see on Instagram and the website is what you see in real life at the farm/homestead - happy, cared-for animals (not just pigs! Autumn also takes great care of her adorable barn cats, goats, chickens, guardian dogs, etc.); and unlike other places, Autumn equips future and current pet pig owners with the knowledge and skills they need to fully take care of pigs at every life stage (since pet pigs are a lifetime commitment to take seriously, NOT an afterthought). Autumn Acres Mini Pet Pigs is worth the visit and for adopting your pet pig; and please invest in her education courses as well! Worth every Penny and you’ll never learn all the insightful information anywhere else. That’s guaranteed. There’s pig scammers out there, and then there’s Autumn Acres Mini Pet Pigs - the best.
Caitlin Sullivan2023-08-20Autumn has boarded our baby (Guinness) multiple times over the past year. She is an absolute gem! I wouldn’t trust Guinness with many people, but from the first time we met her, we were very impressed. She is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and quick to respond with any questions, concerns, or updates. We would continue to have her board our baby, but we are moving out of state. We know we won’t be able to replace her!! If you are looking for someone to board your pig, buy a new pig, or get additional information/education regarding pigs, go to Autumn, she is the best and you won’t regret it!
Collin Wilson2023-08-16We adopted Peter, henceforth knows as Hogwarts Hogsmeade Harry Porker Wilson (my son named him), and we could not be happier!!! We love everything about Autumn and her operation! One of our favorite things, besides our new family member, is all the support and education that Autumn provides! Not only prior to adoption but for the life of our new pet! She has an educational series and supports people even if you didn’t adopt from her. She is an ethical breeder and makes promises to her clients about how she breeds and that she does so in the safest and most responsible way! We could not be happier. If I could give her more than 5 stars then I would!!
Crystal Thompson2023-06-09Haven't purchased my baby yet, but Autumn is super sweet, easy to talk to and very passionate about Mini Pet Pigs
The Awesome Company2022-10-19Autumn is an asset to the mini pig community. She is generous with her time and pig knowledge. She helped our family feel totally prepared for the arrival of our two pigs, Marty and Doc. I would also recommend purchasing her signature course. It's worth every penny.
Bill Helmken2022-10-15I sincerely appreciate the exceptional professionalism of Autumn Acres Mini Pet Pigs in helping us get a support animal for my mother. Autumn is extremely knowledgeable and now my mom has an amazing companion! You'll be glad you got an Autumn Acres Mini Pig, I am!
Marcus Replogle2022-08-13I can’t say enough about this place. Everything they have going on is wonderful. We bought a mini pig from autumn and she has been very kind and very helpful.
