Hello there!
We've had some chilly nights and days, and plenty of mud about.
Yesterday we spent the day pruning fruit trees, draining mud away from the house and farm jobs.
The kids helped out with egg collecting and did their favourite jobs - getting grubby!
this is our Maremma bitch, "Queenie" - hoping she'll fall pregos so that we can have little white chook watchin' fluff balls! .... with potential dad to be below... "Sailor"
Here's Nic with Monty and Gretta on our afternoon collection. We collect eggs once a day from our A frame hen houses out in the paddock.
The man that brings all of this lovely Organic produce to life - Nic...
interesting attire for our littlest one... but he's happy - so there's no harm, right!?
Here's one of the Hen Head Quarters. We have 4 of these around in the paddocks. Nic shifts these every 2nd day or so. It really helps when the ground is not really muddy and wet - sometimes the tractor has a hard time getting grip and moving them along.
This is the big boy helper, Baxter. He's a chook catcher extraordinaire!
... the paddock's grass and herbage that the cows went into lastnight.
We are getting closer and closer to having bath milk in a bottle!
Terribly exciting to be putting our milky goodness sucked up strait from these pristine Organic paddocks and into a bottle for others to enjoy. Stay tuned....
