It's Pride Month! And in light of the craziness that is our world right now and in the spirit of Love is Love. We at Magh Maell Acres wanted to take a second to thank all of our past and current clients and express how much we love you all and appreciate your support!

And while not the biggest minority, we are still a minority within the Agricultural sector. Your support means we can continue doing the work we love while expanding our own farm and furthering our education, as well as helping educate future generations.

Ya'll mean the world to us! From our family to yours have a safe and Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈

We never stop learning and seeking out education opportunities for our farm so that we may better serve our community and think about things we might want to change at home. We had a great opportunity to branch out and get some hands on time with a type of animal we dont typically get to work with while having a great time at the Virginia Cooperstive Extensions Women's Cattle WISE Conference.
Some things we learned today were:
-Hoof and body scoring
- Low stress handling skills
-How to castrate, give, vaccines, and ear tag
- Reproduction health and considerations

Looking forward to going back tomorrow to learn about equipment, pesticides, and farm safety.

We want to give a huge shout out to Shona O Kane and Jori along with their Horses Fancy, Jones, and Dunny and Dogs Oz, Preacher and Lassie for all of their help and hard work this week as our set out team. Thank you as well to all of the volunteers that came up and filled in when Kelsy and I needed an extra hand in the pens. We couldn't have done it with out all of you, you were all an absolute joy to work with!

We also want to thank Rebecca Gibson, Dee Bailes, and Nicole Bozich for putting this huge event together. Everything was phenomenal, and we appreciate all the hard work yall did to put this together for our sheep dog community

When we said "Quiet and Kind" we meant it! When we take on the task of being the pen crew for your Trials we understand that not only is it expected for the flow of the trial to be maintained and orderly, but also that the sheep used for the trial are well cared for and respected. We want our clients and their stock to feel comfortable with us and strive to maintain minimally advertise practices when working with animals

It's been a muddy mucky last couple of days here at the USBCHA National Finals, but these guys have been such lovely sheep to work with we haven't had a single issue besides some in general sheep naughtiness 😂 The handling system that we've have been using has been great as well easy to use and allows for you to move around in the system quickly and plenty of access points to pull sheep out if needed.

Not to mention our beautiful view of the trial field

Guess who's giving our Market stall two paws up? The feline critics

I was about to cook dinner when I saw the dogs staring at something in the backyard like it was the latest doggy soap opera. Luckily, River Alfriker is a snake whisperer and saved this copperhead's skin, allowing it to slither away and enjoy more cicada buffets.
