Yep, our country small farm adventures continue! Now that milking a goat is old hand, we thought we'd take on a new challenge.

We fenced in the paddock - approx 5120 square feet (1/8th of an acre) is now permanently fenced for Sassafras (our goat), including a 12 foot gate. It was back-breaking work, and we could NOT have done it without the truck we purchased, but it turned out suprisingly well! I can't really lift my arms today and my triceps are screaming in pain. (more details in my blog)

I've contacted a few places in search of a companion for Sassafras. I know that she's been lonely, so I'm very excited to get her a friend (besides the dogs and the cat)!

Oh, and we harvested our first plums yesterday, too!


We will be farmers if it kills us.
