Check out these rad kids working on the goat hide! After soaking the hide in oak bark tannin for several weeks, the kids pulled it out of the tannin and washed the hide. They had to work those muscles rinsing and washing and rinsing and washing again and again until the excess tannin was out. Then they all took turns cleaning the flesh side with the fleshing tool. And finally they nailed it to the board to dry. I am so grateful to Matt from Traditional Tanners for his classes that have given me the confidence to experiment with tanning!

Come to the farm and make holiday gifts, learn crafts, meet the animals, eat a seasonal treat, and enjoy relaxing with other women in a gorgeous setting. I am so excited to host this series! This Sunday we will dive into bags of llama, alpaca, and sheep wool from our animals raised here, and create simple and fun felting crafts! In November Erin Figy of Frog & Twig will teach us how to make holiday ornaments, and we will finish off the fall series in December with papermaking (ok all you camper moms, now is your time to do all the fun crafts you said you wished you could do when you saw the kids learning at camp!). Treat yourself to an afternoon of laughter, connection, and craft! You can register for each session individually, or all 3! on the website, wadecreekfarm.com under adult classes.

It’s a beautiful day to make some baby llamas! My awesome friend Jacob Mumford of Evergreen Llamas brought this handsome beau Blackhawk to spend some time with Tinkerbell and Sadie. Now we just wait 350 days while imagining abundant cuteness in the works!

I started planting our food forest almost 10 years ago and just love seeing it grow and change. The idea of a food forest is that you are mimicking a natural forest by planting a diverse, multi layered “forest” of edible trees, bushes, and understory plants, that are all edible! By adding animals into this system, just like a forest, the animals here clean up the grass and other plants and fertilize the trees and shrubs naturally (p**p!). I love always working towards being a “regenerative agriculture” farm, making decisions that integrate the livestock, food forest and fields to make healthier soil year after year, which benefits the farm as a whole.

You know it’s time to make applesauce when the chickens are IN the tree eating the apples! I was moving wood chips with the tractor yesterday and noticing apples dropping from the tree, and upon further investigation found a bunch of little chicks sitting in the tree pecking at apples! Luckily, we have an abundance and I am a compulsive sharer, but good thing I was already planning to make applesauce and apple beehive dessert with my afterschool Farm Kids!

I love these goats!!! If I could spend all day with them I would be in heaven. Goats have high mineral needs, and I have been a huge fan of Pat Coleby’s work on Natural Farming and giving livestock free access to loose minerals so they can individually access what they need. Today I am refilling the kelp, which gives them lots of trace minerals, and you can see how much they love it as they swarm me and the bucket! Even the shy baby goats will eat kelp from my hand. Hard to film (especially as I’m getting lots of love from the Great Pyrenees), but hopefully makes you feel like you’re here in the barnyard with me!

We have started tanning hides in our Wednesday After School Farm Kids Program. It is so cool to see the kids just dive into hide tanning! They love it, and I adore teaching kids traditional skills. They are already talking about what they are going to make with the finished leather. These will be hair on goat hides, so I’m thinking slippers or mittens?

Happy fall everyone! What better way to celebrate fall than an apple fest! This year our apple trees have produced more apples than I can rationally eat and can, so the piggies get lots of delicious treats!

We had such a lovely Sunday at the farm celebrating the coming of fall at Pickles, Canning and Kraut Class. What an honor to have our friend Cat come to class to celebrate her birthday! I just love teaching these old world skills, and it is such a joy to see kids get so into kraut making! It was a chilly day, but still so fun to process food in the outdoor kitchen. Excited to see everyone next year for such a special weekend on the farm.
