Visitors to Our Farm

I am fortunate to work with a very special lady Marylee. She is one of our Secretaries in the ICU. She is always helpful, on top of situations and boy can she bake. She brings in goodies all of the time. Muffins, cakes and treats for the staff. She brought in a three layer walnut cake in the other day. Oh My Goodness! She has always wanted to visit the farm. We agreed on St. Patrick's Day and I would make corn beef with cabbage, potatoes and carrots. Mmmm...one of my favorites. Then the plan went to her coming and making soap too. Hey a girls day in. As the way with all well laid plans, everything changes. She received a call in the morning from her daughter in law needing a baby sitter and her son Adam was here from Portland, Maine too. So we made changes and she brought her mom along too. Asalind is a sweet 3 year old with a vocabulary of an eight year old. Very intelligent little girl with wonderful manners. Adam is very conscious of where his food comes from. He is vegetarian and against commercial producers. I agree with him hence we take very good care of our meat animals. The goats kept trying to get Adams hat. "We will give you goatie kisses for that hat."

Ted kept the goats happy with alfalfa cubes.


The chickens are in love with Asalind. She enjoyed feeding the chickens best. The goats were a bit offended.

Asalind learned where eggs came from. The ladys were very sweet and didn't peck the little hand poking around the laying box.

Marylee and Asalind visiting the goats with a barrier. The girls are a bit pushy.

We love having visitors to the farm. They came prepared with the required mud boots and treats. I feel that it is very important for kids to see animals out of cages and happy. We love our animals and they love treats!

Much Love from Mainely Ewes Farm
