City Kids - Week 2

 March is in like a lion, out like a lamb…. or at least they say.
We will see if that is true, the weather is definitely all over the place.


Starting off this week Loganberry had a bull calf, which the farmers named Dingleberry.  
The City Kids got him now drinking his milk from a bucket!

Also on the farm we had 30 baby meat chicks arrive.  The two older ones are loving all the new company.

Our garden is starting off strong, the students this week got to plant watermelon!!

With the weather going back and forth from warm to cold, the students this week were able to hang more buckets and collected about 700 gallons of sap total, while here.
