“Milky Time” is definitely a call that has everyone running on the farm! Right now, Delilah is giving over a gallon of milk a day, and everyone is pretty darn happy about it 🥛🐐!!

The baby pigs get a snack, the dogs LOVE their twice daily treat, and even Stella has joined the horde waiting for her share…mixed with cinnamon and maple syrup, inspired. Now that’s farm FRESH!

The greatest of congratulations to FIVE graduated seniors from our farm family! 🎉🎓

One of the most rewarding parts of our farm is coaching the youth staff who help make it happen here on the farm. Many of these kids have been with us since they were first old enough to work, and seeing them grow and develop, taking on more responsibilities, and discovering what their passion is (sometimes even through work they’ve done here!) is incredible.

We’re sad this also means some of them will be moving away for their next adventure, but please help us wish them all the best for their VERY bright futures ahead!

Happy Fourth of July!! Grateful for a beautiful WNY summer day to spend with our family, we hope you’re doing the same w...
