Well it is the end of September 2014 and the fall colors are starting to show. They look exceptionally bright, almost florescent this year. It is going to be a beautiful fall again on the farm. Soon, those leaves will be falling and clean-up will begin. And then, old man winter will begin to settle in. Winter can be tough on the farm, transporting warm water from the house to keep everyone warm, extra hay and grain for everyone, all designed to help keep the animals warm. We did get to build the "yearling barn" this year which was a great achievement but we still need to focus our attention on the main barn as it can get very cold in there. It is now several years old and wood is starting to rot and warp creating drafts. I have been slowly but surely working on the floor to get it evened out and more safe for walking on. The main barn is too small for all the girls there and getting it safer and larger to support everyone is our main goal, looks like for 2015. Thank you to all our guests for staying with us in 2014 and we look forward to seeing return guests and meet new guests for 2015.
