A Busy Day and A New Arrival on the Farm

Leave a comment

It seems there are not enough hours in the day. After work today, we laid out the drip line and the mulch for planting tomatoes this weekend.   It will be a single, 500′ row of a few different varieties. 

   

Two days ago, as we were on our way to the Archery Nationals in Louisville, we got a call from one of our neighbors. They had a 4-day old calf whose mama had died and they needed to find him a good home. Today, this cute little fella arrived:

 
He’s 6 days old and can empty a 2-quart bottle in less than 10 minutes. 

 
He arrived as the rain began to fall, so it’s hard to tell from the pics that he’s actually red. I’ll try to get better pics when he’s dry. For now, he doesn’t have a name. I’m sure we’ll think of something.

Hello! We're Jake's Run. We live on a farm with lots of sheep, 4 dogs, a big garden, lots of jars for canning, a lot of yarn, and a couple of humans. We sell lamb meat, jams and jellies, home grown produce (when it's in season), and crocheted items, including topped towels, dish cloths, etc. Here at the farm, there's always something to be done and it's always under construction. Come along and join us for the fun!
