We had so much fun Sunday.
I wanted to post these before I deleted them off my phone. Tony did so good on his first outing. He doesn’t spook easily and he’s figured out that treats are involved 🦙❤️

Just a reminder, with all the fall festivals this weekend and Halloween coming up, that we would be grateful for any hay donations when you’re done with your bales and of course we would be happy to take any pumpkins as well. We will have a cart out front at the farm that you can drop off pumpkins in and we’ll be glad to come pick up bales of hay, just let us know. Thank you and all our animals thank you! We will also be glad to take straw bales as well. We can use it for bedding for our animals when it get cold. Thanks again.

Private parties are my favorite 😍
Today we hosted a bridal party. The sweetest couple and the most lovely parents and bridesmaids.
I like when you can take your time with a group and get to know them. Looks like they’re now having a cow 🐄 at their wedding 💒 🤣🤣
I only snapped one photo as I was staring to set up. I look forward to seeing their photos later 🐐🧘♀️

Lots of the babies came back to the farm today to get their nails done and get a check up!! It was so great to see them and they all got an A+!
Thanks to Kari Bryant from Little Cloppers Hoof Trimming for coming to take care of the our herd and everyone that came out. We ran all ours through the chute. We currently have 64 goats 😳 We have some selling to do come November.
Huge shout out to Leanne Smith for bringing Teddy out and helping us herd the goats into the chute area. Especially since she was coming back from trials in Nebraska and hadn’t been home yet. Love our farm friends 💚🐐

Day 4. Keller and Hattie brought pumpkins for the pigs so we fed them those this morning. Then we played before morning snack. After snack was goat time than lunch. After lunch we painted pumpkins then made s’mores. Then we headed to the big barn to walk the llamas and minis, feed and hay everyone. The boys ended up doing pitching practice and the girls started a cheer camp. It ended abruptly when the cows 🐄 wanted to do airplane too with the counselors 🤣🤣 We ended the day catching Grey the pig and putting him back in the boy pen. I can’t believe tomorrow is the last day!!

Day 3. This weather is just beautiful and the animals are loving having the kids here. Today we had the hay ride! We’re also doing lots of halter work with the mini’s and the llamas.🦙 It’s so nice to have help!! It’s hard to work them all on our own.
We built a fire 🔥 We hayed all the animals, the bunnies got pedicures and we collected lots of feathers 🪶. Tomorrow s’mores and pumpkin 🎃
Okay, people’s plans keep changing so now we have 3 spots on Friday.
Also, we will NOT be having a winter camp this year. Sorry 😞

Double BB Farms is a local Micro Farm located in Monroe, LA. It is owned and operated by Bryan and Judy Babb. They have one daughter, Nova, who attends ULL. The vision of Double BB Farms is to become self-sufficient by raising livestock, growing fruit and produce and making products used in everyday life, all while leaving as minimal of a footprint it can on the environment.
Bryan, the green thumb of the pair, is the Vice President of the Master Gardeners of Northeast La plans the layout, the variety of crops, and the rotation of the different crops, to make the small 2.5 acre farm productive. Every inch of the farm is being used. “We have edible landscaping,” as Bryan says. The landscaping consists of your normal annual and perennial flowers and shrubs, mixed in with fruit trees, herbs and vegetables. They have in ground gardens, box gardens, container gardens and even vertical gardens. He tries to grow enough seasonal vegetables to provide for the family and enough to take to markets on occasions. Double BB Farms also is the home to a small herd of Boer Goats and a small flock of “Diva” Chickens as Bryan and Judy call them. Bryan takes care of most of the daily livestock duties including taking care of the Goats, Chickens and a Llama, named Harper. The Boer Goats are meat goats and are being bred and raised to sell for showing but it didn’t start that way. Bryan said the idea of raising meat goats to sell came up when his good friend Chef David Raines opened The Flora Butcher, an old-world butcher shop in Flora, MS. He carries all types of meats and found that there was a demand for goat meat and needed a supplier, “so that is when Double BB Farms went into the goat business”, Bryan said. We also sell fresh chicken eggs, but they go fast, and I am hoping to add some Ducks to the farm in the spring to sell their eggs. We also sell pepper sauces, syrups, pickled okra, preserves, bread and butter pickles, clotted cream, fudge, pasta and much more farm fresh goods, he notes. You can order directly from them through the website or follow them on Facebook.
While Bryan is outside tending to the gardens and animals, Judy can be found in the kitchen. She enjoys spending her time cooking and creating her own line of pet and beauty supplies. Judy says that she has always made her own supplies and products but now she is taking it a step further and making them to sell. She makes hair and skin products that have a coconut oil base and are infused with essential oils. Her line includes lip balm, lotions, sugar scrubs and bath bombs to name a few. All the products made here at the farm are a 100% natural and are child and pet friendly, she adds. You can also order these products and more through the web site or stop by Judy’s Office at 504 Finks Hideaway Rd in Monroe.
We are blessed to have a farm that connects to a larger 400 acre Family Farm and hope to expand in the future but for now it is about all we can handle. Judy owns and operates Kelsey Klean. The two hopes that one day that Double BB Farms will be their only job because it is truly a labor of love living farm life. Bryan and Judy invite you to keep up with what’s happening at the farm on Double BB Farms page.
