Chicken update

Our girls have a fondness for the top step.
Try to move them.
Not going to happen.
When I picked Rosetta (sitting) off the step to put her back in her coop, Linda (black) scurried into the house and made a ruckus when tried to get her out.
The other hen is Mary.

Everyone should have chickens.
They make wonderful pets.

Farm Day

We went to Backbone Farm for their open farm day.
We had a lot of fun and met some very lovely people.
There was delicious food too.
Yum,
Yum,
Yum!
From the source.

Max teaching the children how to thresh oats.

The children threshing oats the old fashioned way.
It's a real good way to get out your aggressions out.

End product.

My attempt to get a picture of Isabella's tomato person as she is running to watch the draft horse demonstration.

Veggie creature creations.
Amazing creativity from the kids there!
Isabella did the three in the center.
