The big news is early Thursday morning one of our mama goats, Katrina, delivered Chloe and Winnie. What a treat watching Katrina’s maternal instincts kick into gear immediately after giving birth, cleaning up her babies and getting them ready for life (and my photos.)
In other news, today a muralist, William Rogers, arrives from Boston to paint a mural on the side of the performance barn. And we are thrilled with how well our solar project worked out-- marrying new tech with a very old barn.
With Peter's fields producing and (hopefully) some sunny weekends ahead, we would love to serve you a farm fresh brunch (and while here you can meet Winnie and Chloe. )
The Opera and Italian supper a few weeks back was a grand evening (see pictures and comments below.) There will be another one on August 29th (tickets here) and it will sell out early.
For the third year in a row, Dusty Wright and Friends put on a great show before a sell out crowd. In these dark times, it is a blessing to feel the energy and sense of community during these evening events.
“The evening was a glorious blend of food, wine, laughter, and song.”
“Thank you and your family for the opportunity to enjoy these kinds of events in an amazing place.”
“We have been smiling ever since! Can’t wait for the next show.”
Here’s what’s coming soon. Please reserve your spot and join us.
