Mud Season

The piggies are growing fast! I've fussing over them like a new mom. It feels good to take care of animals again and get back in the habit of making sure everyone is eating and happy. The pigs are in the barnyard until the ground dries out a little more and then they'll be out on some shrubby, woodsy pasture.

My microloan from the USDA Farm Service Agency came in just in time to get me over the hump of expenses that come in the Spring. It has been wonderful to be able to get a small loan now to be able to build credit for my business. Between the loan and my Meat Share members I've been able to buy my animals, fencing and get through my first feed order. It's such a relief that to have these purchases behind me. The lambs are coming in NINE DAYS. So exciting!
