Winter is here, the skies are wild, rain beating down on the roof, so it's time again to sit down and think back over an eventful year. The year 2003 will be remembered as the "Year of the numerous Wwoofers" They just kept comin'! Apart from all the help they've given us their company has been very enjoyable and inspiring.
Thanks guys and gals!
Our little goat herd comprised 3 nannies and a yearling this spring.
11 year old 'Queen' Emily was VERY visibly pregnant with twins.
Cinnamon gave birth to what must be one of the cutest goatkids ever. Named Susie after the Wwoofer who left an hour before the birth, this wee girl was much loved by everyone who came to the farm this year.
In total we had 4 kids this year, 3 females and 1 male. The young females have been sold to an organic Burren farmer, the male is going... I leave that to your imagination. Vindaloo's the word.
