I lease 100 acres of pasture owned by a local vineyard. This year they asked me to have my sheep graze the actual vineyard while the vines are dormant in order to manage the vegetation that grows around the vines. A perfect green solution that benefits the environment, the soil and the sheep!

Happy Hens Farm Dog Treats
Ranch dog approved! We now have dog treats for sale made from our own fresh meats. My dogs love them and I'm thrilled to be able to give them such a nutritious snack made from our grass-fed beef, lamb, goat and pastured pork. Ranch boss dog Jack gives them a big thumbs up! Bow wow!
The end of a good day... |

Free Beef!
Happy Presidents' Day. We couldn't figure out what to put on sale so we decided to give you a free pound of our 100% ground beef with every $30 purchase of our meat (beef, lamb, pork and goat). And yes -- we have lots of eggs again. The chickens have been laying like crazy!

80 Lambs and Counting...
Lambing has been well underway on the farm. Almost all my ewes twin. I was expecting most of the lambs in March but obviously the rams got a jump start on things. One of my turkey hens has begun her nest and the chickens are laying eggs like crazy again. The fruit trees are budding out and Priscilla and June, my two Gloucestershire Old Spot pigs, are pregnant. Sounds like an early Spring to me!
