The beautiful sheep in this picture live in the northern part of the state and as soon as roads are passable we hope to purchase one of the rams to attend to our ladies Morticia and Cousin It.  We are kind of partial to the one in the center that appears to be posing for us!  We tried to show the picture to the girls to see if they had any preference but their room mate, Dribbles the goat, ate the picture.  Guess we will just suprise them:)

Some of our customers asked why we didn’t attend the Farmer’s Markets the Saturday after Christmas.  Here is why! This is Joseph our grandson.  He came to visit us over the holidays from Southern Florida and wanted snow for Christmas.  We took him to Munds Park and you can see he got his wish.  We hope our customers can understand our absence.

At least 18 goats are pregnant presently and due the end of this month into Febr.  Emily, our Goddess of Sales is going to try and install a streaming web cam so everyone can watch them play.  Baby goats bounce around like popcorn and can be very entertaining.

Estrella, Princess, and Foxy will foal this spring.  They usually have multi-colored foals that are well recieved by the equestrian community.  We imprint them at birth.  This requires that we sleep with an egg timer and roll over and stare at the tv monitor every hour to check for changes in the mares.  We have a camera wired in the barn that broadcasts into the  house in our bedroom.  No one gets much sleep in March.  We hope that the birds that nested in the barn stay out of the camera this year.  It is very unsettling to see a beady eye staring back at you in the middle of the night when one of them is sitting on the camera and peering in!

Fresh From the Goddess is going great with the gluten free branch of the farm biz and has recently invented several vegan gluten free goodies and the latest flavor of biscotti–Mango and White Chocolate.  Joseph brought mangos with him from Florida for his grandma and we like to share our good fortune:)

We hope the New Year will bring peace and health to all of you and that you will stop by and see us!
