November Phenology

Our season ended in mid November, but the farm keeps on going... and going... and going :)

Below are some of our highlights from Spring Brook Farm since the students have left.

    - All the heifers were moved into the heifer barn.

    - We have had 3 calfs born.
          - November 17th Julia gave birth to a bull calf
          - Coraline gave birth to a heifer calf on November 26th, who we named Cassidy
          - Friday December 2nd Astrid gave birth to a heifer calf, who is named Aubrey

    - Fiat (a heifer) was moved into the Small Animal Barn to recover from all the pushing in the                                    
           heifer barn.  She is doing quite well hanging out with the calves, though.

    - Our garden was officially put to bed for the winter.

    - The floor upstairs in the dorm is being sanded and varnished, it is going to be so pretty and shiny.

    - Our last two pigs finally left the farm.
