Gale Wood Farm







A couple of weekends ago I took June to see the Farm Babies at a farm near our house.
Unfortunately, we were a wee bit early and there were no babies yet, just some VERY prego pigs and sheep.
Two big pigs lying there, panting, looking about ready to pop! I feel your pain ladies!
So no pictures of the pigs, out of respect. Interesting bit of info, they build special crate/beds for the pigs to keep them from rolling over and squashing their babies!
June did enjoy the chickens, they let her pet one, and she got to feed the sheep.
Another bit of info, sheep don't have bottom teeth, which they told me after my question about potential bite on little soft June hands! Don't worry lady, just let her feed the stupid sheep!
It was a gorgeous day, before the weather turned sour on us again. They had a maple grove where you can drink sap fresh out of the tree. We didn't try that, maybe next time.
Yeah Spring!

Your farmer ancestors would be so proud of you, June. Such a brave little girl. Mom, too.
Hope you get to see the babies next time.
Be well!
