Farm Animals & Winter Plans

Our donkeys, Clementine and Dolly have gone out to another farm for the winter where kids can play with them everyday. They have more room there and we'll bring them back in the Spring when all of you start to visit again for field trips! Audrey and Ginger are going to Linda's to meet "Mr. Goat" - hopefully we'll have some babies this spring too.

The cats all stay put and keep the mice down. They love to make beds in the hay barns and stay out of the cold.

The potatoes need to be gleaned. Our potato expert said they should make it until December and then the ground starts to get too cold for them so we're having a "Potato Gleaning Party" December 2nd 12pm - Bring your own bag and come get some potatoes before they freeze!

Archery Hunting

Every year we host a 3D archery tournament called the Bijou Bulls Eye Classic the weekend after Memorial Day. We always try to give away hunts to deserving youth as many youth today are not given the opportunity to experience the outdoors in this manner whether it be the access to the land, monetary restrictions or just lack of exposure. This weekend 2 of our lucky winners will be deer hunting on the creek bottom. Hopefully they will take two lovely prizes - Good luck Samantha and Tyler! We'll post pictures next week!

Need a good place to eat downtown? Fuel Cafe off Ringsby Ct. - a little bit off of the beaten path but once you find it it's almost worth keeping it a secret! The owner, also our chef, Bob Blair is very passionate about his work and you can taste it in every bite! In the summertime the menu is inspired by their backyard garden. Fresh herbs and veggies. Delicious! Thanks for the great meal Bob!
