The baby goats this year are just the best. I think I’m going to miss them when they go to new homes in a few weeks. I honestly haven’t gotten many pictures lately but it’s mostly because they are all over me when I’m in the pasture and it’s hard to get good pictures! lol! Case in point, see picture below! Little boy is eating my shirt!
My little lambs are leaving this week and honestly I’m so sad. These lambs have been such a delight and so incredibly friendly!! I will get a video soon of them! ❤️

Happy Wednesday everyone! Sorry I’ve been MIA lately! We hosted our family reunion two weeks ago and I’ve been on the struggle bus to get back into a routine around here. We had a fabulous time with family which was wonderful! We have been getting just enough rain that I have been neglecting the garden and it’s been growing like crazy! So today I tackled the tomato plants, trimming them and making sure they were supported. That was a chore! The whole time Bubba was out with me keeping me company! 😂 Also I got lightly rained on the entire time- I thought it wasn’t supposed to rain today?!! lol! The green beans have baby beans on them, bell pepper have baby peppers. Zucchini is almost ready for harvest! Now to clean up the mess from all my trimming!

Happy Sunday! The biggest goat update I have this week is that we now have a bottle baby! Every year one of Luna’s triplets will end up being a bottle baby because there is always two babies fighting over one ni**le. This year her boy (he’s black and white) and this girl were fighting over the same ni**le. I tried over and over again over the last few weeks to put one of these two on a bottle. Then this week this little girl finally decided she was hungry enough to drink from the bottle! So she is my new best friend and comes running for her bottle three times a day! 🥰 And yes she has beautiful blue eyes! ❤️

Happy Saturday! Our twin boy lambs are sold but won’t be leaving until the first week of July. I have been faithfully working with them since birth to make them used to people and friendly. It’s funny how one was my favorite early on and I still love him but his brother has stolen my heart the last couple weeks. I did a short video of “Cosmo” to send to his new mama but I wanted to share it with you all also. It’s probably not the best video but boy is this little guy a love bug!! He loves getting chin scratches after he eats his pellets!! I think he is going to make the best pet ever!! His brother is going to be a ram so I think it’s perfect that he’s friendly but not overly friendly like this one. All in all I couldn’t be happier with our two lambs this year. Aurora and DJ produce some outstanding lambs!! 😍

Happy Friday! If you drive by our farm you might notice some strange trees on the side of the house near the garden. These are our sour cherry trees. We netted them to keep the birds off the cherries! It’s exciting to see the cherries starting to change color! Last year the birds got all the cherries! This year they are mine!! 😊

Happy Tuesday! I noticed something that made me laugh out loud to myself the other day when I was doing barn chores. Opal’s daughter had decided that standing on top of mom was super fun! She was literally jumping up there and getting a ride!! She has pretty good balance too! She fell off a few times but just jumped right back up there again. Opal didn’t even seem to care! She is so chill! 😂😂

No eggs today but we will have some tomorrow!! 😊

Happy Saturday evening! Today our last two February babies found their forever home, right down the street. ❤️
So happy that all our 2024 babies have found new homes although the little ones won’t be leaving til July. Thank you everyone for loving our babies as much as we do! ❤️

Happy Friday! I haven’t updated everyone on our sweet lambs in awhile (my page was taken over by baby goats!). The lambs are growing like crazy! They are getting chubby. They love their mama and tend to stay pretty close to her unless they are napping. They have the sweetest voices although one tends to make all the noise. He calls for his mama whenever she gets out of sight. One of them is starting to try mamas pellets when I feed her. His twin has no interest in the food but likes to chew on the rubber pail. 😂
They are simply adorable and are letting me pet them while mama is eating. I almost forgot- their tails that were banded fell off this week! So they have their short tails now. We will get their ears tagged next week. Any sheep leaving our farm have to be tagged with our farm scrappies number. This is so if they turned out to have scrappies, the state will know what farm they came from. 😊

It’s not too late to sign up for pictures next week! They turned out so cute!!

Happy Mother’s Day!!! It’s been a jam packed weekend for me. I had the pleasure of hosting two bread milling/baking classes, Friday and Saturday. So wonderful to see people interested in bread and making it healthier! Both classes got to snuggle baby goats while their bread was rising which was probably the highlight of the classes! lol! I tell you, there is nothing better than a baby goat snuggle!! 🥰
I will be looking at my schedule and seeing about adding some more classes soon. If you have a class you are interested in but need a certain day/time please let me know!
Have to give a shout out to all the animal moms we have on our farm! These ladies do such a great job raising their babies and it is hard work!! Pictured is our oldest mama, Opal, taking a snooze with one of her newborns. ❤️

05/11/2024

Edited to update- bread class today is sold out!!

Happy Saturday! I had a great bread class last night. Everyone successfully made their own bread and took it home! They got to snuggle some baby goats as well while bread was rising. 🥰
Today we have another bread class going on from 3-6pm. I do have 2 open spots for this class still if you want to join in. We will be milling fresh flour to make the bread. See below for details but if you want to bring mom, she is half price! Let me know asap if you want to join us today!

Happy Friday! I’m going to be pairing up with a fabulous photographer and offering mini portrait sessions with our baby goats here on the farm! So be on the lookout for more details but it looks like it will be Tuesday/Wednesday evenings in the next week or so. Your littles would look so cute cuddling these sweethearts! lol I know some adults that would love to cuddle them too!! ❤️❤️
