2013 Yellow Springs Farm Day Five -Nick


On my last day (Friday) it was raining hard. We started out mucking out the stalls at the farm. After my sister went to the cheese room we got some milk out of the refrigerator and brought it with us to Hollow farm. At hollow farm we fed the babies milk. We fed them inside there stalls because it was to wet to let them out. I also helped a newborn drink milk from his mother.
 

After we had fed the babies, we made sure that all the goats in their stalls had hay, grain and water. We mucked out all the stalls before heading to lunch. After lunch we stayed at yellow springs farm. We cleaned up around the stalls  and then made sure the goats had food and water. The rest of the afternoon was spent saving udders and trimming the goats hooves. At the end of the day I said farewell to the goats and the folks there and headed home with some delicious goat cheese in hand!
