Animals

We have a new addition and her name is Gracie! This Strawberry Roan Tennessee Walking Horse made her way to us after her former owner passed away and a very kind woman in Northwest Alabama took in his whole herd to find them homes.

The only hiccup was that Gracie arrived at our farm a day early. I was out of town working and, well, hadn’t exactly gotten around to telling Mike we had a new horse. So when the trailer pulled up to deliver her, he was truly fit to be tied (and we won’t even talk about the battery of angry text messages that followed!). But time heals even the foulest of Italian tempers and now we’re all smitten with this sweet little mare. Plus here’s the kicker: it’s Mike D’Avanzo who’s loving on her the most. 😉

Welcome, Gracie, to your “forever home!”

Does it get any sweeter than this?

It’s chick season! And we have six new additions: 2 Barred Rock babies, 2 Black Australorps as well as 2 sweet little Buff Orpingtons we’re raising for a friend down the road. Come July our “nest” should be filled with plenty of fresh eggs so give a holler if you’ll be wanting some.
