Happenings on the farm:
Baby Chicks
May 1, 2022: Rhode Island Chicks are hatchings--a sure sign that spring has arrived. Piglets were born last week. Baby lambs are now a month old and soon it will be time to plan the garden.
Making Apple Cider
November 7, 2021: We enjoyed making apple cider. The apples were especially juicy this year because of the abundance of rain.
Thanks to 18th Century Purity Farm for these wonderful apples grown without chemicals.
Baby Pigs
October 1, 2021: Momma pig gave birth to 9 piglets this morning. They were right on schedule (versus the surprise baby chicks earlier in the week.)
Surprise--baby chicks
September 29, 2021: Went out the vegetable garden and there was a hen with new chicks. She must have had a nest under the vast expanse of squash leaves and spent 21 days there hatching these five cute chicks.
