Codman Community Farms

Well, the last pregnant ewe finally had her lambs this morning.  Two healthy girls, named Bulb and Calliope, are the latest bits of cuteness to enter the barn this month.

We’ve also had two calves born in the last week:  Willie (Nelson) and Waylon (Jennings).

Willie, a Devon/Lineback cross, hanging out in the field.

And, did I mention that we’ve also tapped 60 trees and are making maple syrup?  Yes, indeed, it sure has been a busy winter here at Codman Farms.

So far we've collected over 50 gallons of sap.

It’s been a busy week here on the farm.  We have seven goat kids that were born on Tuesday and Wednesday.  Add to that three lambs that also were born late Wednesday/early Thursday.  The fun never stops!

Kids all snuggled together.

What could be cuter?

Taking a little snooze...

For this week, our beekeeping class is postponed, due to the incoming inclement weather.  A make up class is scheduled for Wednesday, March 17.

Well,  Peter was walking by the goats when a few new faces popped out at him.  We have five new kids on the farm, yet to be named.
