Hay delivery

 We got a hay delivery on the farm. The bails were 800 pounds each so we had them moved with a tractor. Melissa did a wonderful job working the tractor and unloading the hay into the hay shed.

 The llamas were happy to try out the new hay. They really like it.

All the animals are excited about the hay and are happy to have enough hay for the winter.

Cleaning the duck pond

 Today the volunteers cleaned out the duck pond. This was a job that has been needing done for a long time. Milo shows this young boy how to wash out the duck pond.

Hello Goats

 The goats are happy after their walk and enjoy walking around the farm.
Cecil in the front, Willow on the left, and Leah beside her walk around. They are enjoying their freedom and vacation out of their round pen they've been living in. These goats are looking for a home and would be a great group to go together. If you or anyone you know wants a group of three goats, we would love for you to come visit them.

Walking during the holidays

 The group of volunteers are ready for their walk. They are festive with hats and bells and the animals are feeling the Christmas spirit.
