Happy May Day!

Did anyone get over to the Triangle Farm Tour last week? I didn’t; I’m doing my own “farm stay”. Actually, I’m home in East Texas and we are not a working farm, but I am enjoying seeing my Aunt Sue’s Gelbvieh, Charolais and Angus cattle across the road…does that count as a “farm stay”? 🙂

If you missed the tour last weekend, you can still head out to Goat Lady Dairy and two other farms in the area for their open farm day this weekend. Enjoy!
