Spring Farm Update

     Here we are and it's already April. Many little spring things have been going on over here at Stone Pond Dairy. We had our turkey hen, Jake, sit on some eggs and a little bit ago they hatched. There are some turkeys and some chickens so we call them the churkeys. Our heifer, Honeybelle, also had a calf last night around 9:20pm. He is the most adorable little thing headed to the butcher! I was at our weekly Civil Air Patrol meeting when Daddy texted to tell us that Honey was having her calf. Well, it's her first calf so I had to be there. The rest of the guys are going to have to tell me what happened.      Now, for the photos...

And there you go. :)

Farm Swap

I guess it's our version of a farmer's market. But the farmer's markets always seem like big yard sales to me. This is literally a swap between farmers. Usually it's for money, but occasionally someone will swap a cage for a few dozen eggs. :) There are pigs, goats, sheep, chickens, geese, ducks, cows, ponies, guineas, and more! I think it's every other Sat. I only go every once in a while with my daddy.
