Sorry for the lack of postings lately, but the Harvest Fair has taken a lot of time. That's this Sunday at Sheep Pasture from 10-4. Looking forward to getting back to a regular schedule.
Simba, our Jersey ox, arrived yesterday. He is almost exactly six months old but is developmental delayed due to an illness his mother contracted before he was born. Simba was bottle fed for many months so he is just learning how to eat grass and chew his cud. He is a skinny little guy, but doesn't believe in going into the barn he shares with one of our goats. The goat, of course, hasn't come out of the barn since Simba arrived. Come visit and see if interspecies friendship will bloom.
In the hiatus between postings a lot of things have happened that are worth talking about. Stonehill's History Department had a speaker on Big History. The state has issued a report detailing the effects of climate change specifically on Massachusetts based on several years of research, and as mentioned in an earlier blog Massachusetts Audubon has a brilliant new State of the Birds Report. Plenty to talk about-the start of the Agricultural Commission, the possible casino in Raynham (just another reason to split Easton in two with train tracks), more Civil War stories, etc. All starting Monday.
