March 1st National Pig Day
National Pig Day is March 1st, and New Horizon Farms takes this opportunity to educate and often times introduce these animals to small children at local pre-schools and daycares. We also drop by area nursing homes and facilities to allow elderly men and women a chance to pet and hold a baby pig. It is often something they have not done since their youth or early adulthood. It is fascinating to hear them share their stories of days on the farm.
NHF Pipestone Family Fair Night
New Horizon Farms is a great supporter of the Pipestone County Fair and what better way to show their employees and families their appreciation than to give them a Family Fair Fun Night annually.
- Each employee, spouse and child/children receives a New Horizon Farms t-shirt.
- Each employee and their family members are treated to a wonderful pork meal served by the Pipestone County Pork Producers.
- Children of employees are given several tickets to enjoy midway rides.
New Horizon Farms realizes the importance of family and appreciates the hard work and sacrifice given by the employees and their families. This is one of New Horizon Farms ways of saying “Thank you”.

Pipestone Watertower Parade
New Horizon Farms is a participant in the Pipestone Watertower Parade. Each summer, we have a large contingency that includes New Horizon Feeds, New Horizon Grain, and New Horizon Farms tractor trailers in addition to a float being pulled by the New Horizon partners. Employees and their families all receive a t-shirt that represents the theme of the parade and are welcome to ride, walk and throw candy. We frequently hear comments from spectators on how fun it is to see the colorful float and number of units we provide for this event. It is also impressive to see how many employees and family members come to represent the company. It is a great celebration for New Horizon Farms and the community.
