๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ Singing the highest of praises to Bill, Dianne, & Steve for their help with clearing away the 8 downed trees from last Tuesdayโ€™s storm (many not pictured). Thank you, all! That was quite a bit of work!

We also managed to patch up the many sections of damaged fencing.

A weasel living in the stonewall came out to help us towards the end. Weโ€™d thank them by name, too, but thereโ€™s a bit of a language barrier.

These White ash trees keep giving us a run for our money out in the woods as they decline from Emerald Ash Borer and Ash Decline.
In this case we lost an Ash at Donker Farm that took out our sheep enclosure. Luckily no sheep made a break for it, the trail is cleared, and the metal fence was mangled back into service!

The days are already getting longer enough for the Lakenvelders to start laying! The sun is returning, and this is one of the earliest signs on the farm! Go flock!
