A BIG thank you to all our staff, friends, family and volunteers for making our OPEN FARM SUNDAY yesterday such a success. Over 1400 visitors came to the farm to see and learn about farming.
Both the heavy rain and the piglets came in the evening. Ruby the Middle White sow has 11 tiny piglets, born overnight, I will take a picture and post it later on.
