The goats are saying " enough of this wet stuff falling from the sky!" They're getting pretty stir crazy with all the rain and ice we've had lately!

Fun fact: if you're ever looking at a field of animals and you can't tell if they're sheep or goats, one way to tell is if it's raining, and they run for shelter, they're goats! If they stand out in the rain, happily grazing, they're sheep!
The lanolin in sheep wool keeps them warm and waterproof and they do not seem to mind the rain. Goats on the other hand, generally hate the rain!

February farm shots
Some people ask if I mind farmsitting in the winter.
Although it definitely brings extra challenges that the rest of the year do not, farmsitting in the major cold of a mountain winter brings good things as well. The animals and their needs are a driving force to get moving and get outside. The cold and the wind are grounding and reviving in ways that staying inside on the couch are not. Staying close to nature and its rhythms are healthy and balancing, despite the cold and discomfort.

1/16/25 2:13pm Update: a donor stepped forward and paid his adoption fee. Directly after, we had someone step up to adopt him! He’s being taken to his new home this afternoon!

Also, please remember Lyla is also urgent with a last day of Monday. Please share her posts! Her adoption fee is already sponsored!
—————————————————————

We need rescue commitment or adoption ASAP!

Bourbon is a young lab/retriever/hound mix. He loves to play and run! He has energy for weeks!!! He would be best in an active household with lots of time outdoors.

He tested well with other dogs and kids, though he does need work on jumping and hyper activity around small children.

If you’re interested in this boy, call Ashe Co Animal Control at 336-982-4060. We do not have staffing to monitor FB.

I love the last ones of Lily in profile looking back as Daisy appears out of the fog and comes down into the shelter where we're standing.
