Here's our latest additions. We bought two piglets from a neighbor, to raise for another neighbor. They have almost doubled in size since they came 3 weeks ago. Hopefully they'll be freezer size by June. Some more "farm to table" business, or maybe its "field to fork" "pasture to pantry", hmm pick your favorite title !

Its fun to have piggies around again. Our oldest daughter will be getting her 4H pigs in another few weeks too.

Ready for Shearing Day


Tomorrow is shearing day at our place. Just in the past week the ladies have started looking especially huge, both in fleece and pregnancy-wise. With the pleasant weather they'll probably be happy to have less to carry around. Its supposed to be a nice day so that I'll keep hoping for that.
