As the first frost of the season comes a little late this year, with another frost scheduled next week, we strive to finish the garden
and other pre-winter chores.  How often the 'rush' of our short season forces us to wipe our brows as another item pops into our head needing to be added to our 'to do list'.  

The chaos of the growing season leaves us tired, yet satisfied with
canning in full swing, dehydrating following a close second, and everything else that needs to be done - soon.....yet.....

We would like too 
announce our newest Kinder doe!

Welcome River Birch Farm Adal.

Born 01-25-13


We would also like to thank Kirsten Isaksen Simons for selling us this adorable doe.  Also, a huge thank you to Stephanie at Abby Acre Ranch & Transportation for helping us transport this doll on such short notice.

Oh, how even the best laid plans get 'thrown off track'.  We won't be able to have a clamping video as we had hoped to have in August.   The people we had lined up, were aided by someone they had hired to de-bud. 

Our next opportunity to have a clamping video won't be until March of 2014.  Please accept our apologizes, but know we are still going to do just that.  

Now, if we could just find a volunteer to hold the video camera for
hoof trimming we will have one for that too!

Any volunteers? For hoof trimming HONEST!
