Lambs!


Lambs


Traditionally lambs come on the coldest days. They seem to love foul weather. These sweet little ewes (girls) were born as the snowstorm “Nemo," approached. One of my favorite parts of farming is that it encourages us to spend time outside at times of day and in weather that we might ordinarily miss. When the wind is snarling and the snow is biting it can be hard to make ourselves go out before bed to “count sheep,”, but once I am out the quiet and the crisp air almost always make me feel more alive, especially when I get to meet brand new lambs.
