We are hosting a volunteer work day on our farm! If you are local to Southeastern North Carolina and would like an opportunity to visit our farm in person, this is the best way to do it. We will be focused on cleaning out our goat barn, so be prepared to get dirty. Boots and work gloves are recommended, and please bring any helpful tools along like pitchforks and shovels if you can. Thanks in advance! You can sign up here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdwSNuaSpC7fqGglz…
I harvested the first pumpkins from our extensive volunteer squash plants! Last fall we received a dump truck load of pumpkins and other various squashes as food for our animals. The seeds were scattered all over the farm and now we have giant squash plants growing everywhere. I can't wait to make some pumpkin bread!
We had one last baby goat born on the farm this week. His mom's name is Destiny, and this year we are giving everyone F names, so of course his name had to be....FATE! Both mom and baby are doing great ❤️
Did you know that we handcraft our own goat's milk and lard soap right here on the farm? It's restocked on our website now, but these won't last long! www.redtailedfarm.com/soap/goat-milk-soap
The lambs have started to arrive! Meet Ferdinand, Frank Sinatra, & Floyd - 3 chunky ram lambs to kick off the season. We are on F names this year so please help me out and comment with all your favorite names that start with F!
Look at how adorable this label is! A very thoughtful gift from a sweet customer.
Look at that mountain of pumpkins! Big thanks to our local NC Cooperative Extension for collecting pumpkins for my animals to enjoy.
Hoping everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving surrounded by family and friends!
