So much to be thankful for this year, and every year. A fruitful field, a healthy herd, and so many wonderful friends and family to share in the life of the farm. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
After butchering three roosters, the farm was gifted with nine new hens, bringing our flock to a robust 22 - about all our little coop can handle. Six hens are Arcaunas, known for laying colored eggs. They are molting right now and so not laying, but stayed tuned for pictures when egg production resumes.
Very busy weekend at the farm. We hosted a youth minister from Lewisburg, PA, with his family, Nate, Steph and little Joseph, for a little rest and relaxation - which included helping butcher three chickens!
