We moved our goats into a new patch of the woods this week--and they are enjoying both the shade, and the brush! Woods grazing in September is the last hurrah of summer--before long, they'll be back on hay and back in the barn.

More strategies for keeping cool during this late summer heat wave on the farm! Sheep and goats prefer shade, but a pig will always be happiest in a big old puddle.

Boy oh boy, it is HOT on the farm this week! For some reason that late August heat wave is always the hardest to cope with. Maybe because we've got fall in our sights!

But everyone has shade--including our rams and the honey bees. And we're all crossing our fingers and hooves for some cooler temperatures next week.

The March/April lambs went out with the main flock for the first time today! That's right--they're big sheep now.

We're pretty sure that our fall squash plant is either trying to audition for Little Shop of Horrors, or hoping to join the Triffids in taking over the world.

It's also growing some pretty great squashes.

RIP to farm OG Darcy, the cat who lived (almost) forever.

Twenty-three years ago, we adopted two young cats from a local rescue shelter. We put pairs of names into a hat and picked one out. Among the offerings were Beavis and Butthead, Shadow and Flame, and Pinky and the Brain. The winning slip? Darcy (grey) and Wickham (orange).

They lived happily outdoors, with regular feedings on the second-floor side porch and a well-bedded house of their own outside, for two decades. Every morning, they stared at us from the rooftop until we came out with the day's rations.

When Wickham died two years ago, we started letting Darcy into the house on cold nights. He would curl up on the sofa, snooze soundly, and then ask to be let out the next morning. Other than that, he just kept on keeping on.

Today, he ate an enormous breakfast, curled up on his bed, and went to sleep.

About the best end you could hope for. We'll miss you, old man.

We're training our newly weaned lambs (Leicester Longwool and Merino) to respect the electric fence, so that they can go out with the main flock in a couple of weeks! The small enclosure just outside the lambing barn means that each one of them will eventually venture out, bite the wire, and then will never do it again. This sounds mean, but it's the best way to teach them to stay safe inside the fence so that they can enjoy all of the great grazing on the other side of the farm. The shock is mild, even though uncomfortable. And, as you can see, our livestock guardian dogs are keeping a close eye on them.
