Slap our wrists…
Oh dear, we've really dropped the ball on this one! What happened to our blog?! We could say that the dog ate our internet...but that isn't true in the slightest! The truth is, we have been immensely busy! Its hard to put into one blog post quite what we have been up to, so instead… Continue reading Slap our wrists…
Where to begin…
We have been a bit lax on the blogging front recently. Well, that is a bit of an understatement! If this was a school report, it would contain phrases such as 'could to better' and 'see me'. But we have good reasons for our blog silence! And no...the dog did not eat our internet or… Continue reading Where to begin…
The Lambing Shed (Part 3)
With the structure now fairly sound (we hope!) we started looking at the inside of the lambing shed. This is what we had been looking forward to! We had a few criteria that we needed to meet; we needed electric, pens, a pen with a heat lamp, open space, and areas to store feed and… Continue reading The Lambing Shed (Part 3)

Our first priority was to get the lambing shed… Continue reading The Lambing Shed (Part 1)

So, lets fill you in on what has been happening... On 28th October 2016 we completed on our farm! After a lot of searching… Continue reading The adventure begins…
Liskeard Wool Market – 3 Bags Full
Sheepy movements
This is the time of year where we start moving our woolly friends around and along. Rab and Tag, the Bowmont weathers, have joined us and we are looking forward to seeing how they develop over the next few months. We sold our three coloured ewe lambs to a lovely local couple. These three sre6beautiful… Continue reading Sheepy movements
Turkey Tuesdays: Let’s build 3
Mr P-J has been working very hard on the turkey enclosure and it is finally finished! With a bit of help from Binty and Little P we now have netting across the top of the area, just in case the turkeys decide to have a bit of a flap. Much like some aircraft, turkeys are… Continue reading Turkey Tuesdays: Let’s build 3
