Babes in Winter

February 2, 2022

Our barn is full of babies, from the 5 new litters of piglets, to the 38 chicks that hatched in our incubator, to the 3 litters of bunnies born unanticipated in the rabbit hutch.

They all grow so fast! We were happy to share the baby love with several families with young children who were able to visit the farm this weekend. It’s one thing to see it in pictures… and another thing entirely to experience it live.
