Gardening & Grazing!

 

Garden Planted & Protected by Electric Net Fencing!
It's a bit hard to see from this wide shot, but the garden is planted. We'll have to give it a couple of weeks before you can the plants growing and the seeds sprouting.  It's easy to water plants now since they're so small.  Rain & t-storms have been in the forecast all week, but so far nothing has happened right here on the farm so we'll continue to spread the mulch.  There's a curious lamb gazing at the garden ... give it a few seconds and she'll jump back if she touches the fence!

Ewes & Lambs Out Now to Graze
We moved the ewes with the oldest lambs out to pasture.  Snow White is now mixed in with this group watching over things. Not much else going on now & that's a good thing!

Routine Activities ...

Wild Rose Farm - Snow White Looking On ...
It was sooooo boring today that even Snow White was looking for something to do. She left the sheep behind to graze and came up and stood around the barn. I had been in the barn skirting fleeces until I was forced to shut the barn doors in the 88 degree temps.  It keeps the sun off of me and also keeps it from heating the inside even more ... that's where the 3 ewes with their triplets are hanging out. Snow White had a few treats, then I went down the driveway to give Glenda her share.  Turning back to the barn, it looks like Snow White is waiting for more.  Empty pockets, oh well!
