KIDding around in Texas

We're all settled in on the WHR farm in Elm Mott TX, and one of the first groups to greet us were the 11 goat kids!
We get our daily dose of them in the morning feeding them milk through a pail with 10 nipples (haha) but that's not all we've been up to on the farm. In the last 3 days we have spent time in the garden mulching tomato plants with hay, harvesting vegetables for the Saturday sale at the Farm Building, and picking beetles off eggplants, since the farm doesn't use pesticides. Then we got to feed the beetles to the chickens.We spent yesterday afternoon in the 24 acre Pecan orchard picking up branches and logs that were trimmed off the trees. It was very hot and hard work but we enjoyed ourselves afterward at the nearby creek where we swam / waded in the chest deep water.

Tomorrow after morning chores we're looking forward to experiencing Austin, TX, where a big art fair is happening which should be fun to explore on our hot 96 degree day. See y'all later!
