Spring is near!

Spring is near!

The farm has been quiet this winter, but things are slowly picking up to prepare for spring. Our sow recently gave birth to 9 adorable piglets. Our chickens have been busy laying eggs and the sheep are looking like they will soon be ready to lamb. One of the farm's favorite activities is soon to arrive - maple syrup making! Residents have been working very hard to clean buckets, stack wood and prepare the sugar house for lots of maple sap to boil. We are all looking forward to a great spring!
