Nothing says “Spring is here to stay” like a handful of happy and breezy feeling sheared sheep. 🙂

No before pictures this year unfortunately, because we just didn’t have the time, but Nora looking like a dalmation without her heavy wool is always the silliest transformation.

We are so grateful to have W & W Livestock in our neighborhood, willing to spend a Saturday with us getting everybody freshened up. They also trimmed all the goat hooves this time around and it feels great to have two big jobs checked off of our to do list.

We have this space between pastures that we let go a little wild, and it makes us so happy to let the critters out here to graze this time of year. The grass in their own pasture is slower to start, so this treat holds them over until it’s ready. 😊

We’ve had lots of questions about whether there will be a Springtime Rendezvous this year, the answer is no. There is so much repair work and animal care catch up that we have put off in the name of “outreach” and getting our name out. Rather than burn out, we are turning inward and focusing on what it’s been about all along- Helping and caring for vulnerable farm animals.

We still love small group tours, just call or text and we’ll find a day. 😊 And events will be back in the picture in the coming months, just not today or tomorrow.

Watch for lots of updates about the ways we are improving the sanctuary for the animals who call it home, and showing how much we appreciate all of you who just keep on helping us make it happen. ❤️

Our favorite kind of rescue is the one where we can help out a critter by finding them a forever home, somewhere else. Yesterday was one of those days.

A few weeks ago we received a call that these 3 sweeties needed a new path forward, and we had just the home in mind.

We were told they had never swam before, and the happiest moment was yesterday when their new family told us that they were in their kiddy pool deep into the night. 😊

We get a LOT of calls, a lot of Facebook messages and tags on posts. If you have an open space on your peaceful farm, or in your home, please let us know and we will call you when we receive these messages. So often there is very little we can do, but when we can help critters on their journey to a forever home, we are so happy to do that. ❤️

Leafi knows all about storm prep.

She is especially serious about the part where she makes sure she doesn’t forget her favorite stick when she tucks into her dry bed for the evening. 😊

Today was a great day for the roosters! We have been itching to get this big pasture built for them since their new house was delivered mid winter. It was their first day enjoying space to move outdoors since December.

The day of work was totally worth the moment we got to open the little door and watch them explore with their friend groups. 😊They have been so so happy all afternoon, and that makes us so happy too.

Nothing makes Elsie smile like a hay delivery from David Selle. As soon as the skid-steer starts up a mile away the cows start dancing around the pasture waiting for his arrival. ❤️
Lots of extra snacking tonight in anticipation of tomorrow’s snow and ice. ❄️

A moment of clarity after what has been a whirlwind week. There is nothing like caring for animals in snow deeper than your belly.

We literally had to climb fences to feed some of the critters because there was no way we were going to have time to shovel out every gate on top of everything else.

Alas, we made the best of it, and are glad to see signs of spring out here again. Thanks for believing in us! ❤️🌻🌷

The critters are all snug in their houses today, but Nick and Cecil went out to check on everybody and bring them their supper. Everybody is doing okay. 👌

Cecil is sitting on the stand we use to trim hooves. Almost completely covered in snow. Just a few short weeks ago I was trimming goat hooves on this stand, certainly won’t be happening today!

We have a couple of very loved critters over here. :) ❤
