August 18, 2010 - What a busy summer! It has flown by and we are already looking forward to fall. Blackberry picking is at its peak so bring the kids for some fun picking! Here I am hanging out in front the bushes a couple weeks ago. Be sure to see my new haircut -- it's much cooler. |

June 13, 2010 - The peak of strawberry season is just about finished, but we will still have some summer ever-bearing berries. Our new crop this year is cabbage. This picture was taken today and shows the head beginning to form. The cabbage should be ready in another week. |

February 23, 2010 -What a snowy February! The good news is the snow keeps the strawberries well insulated until the temperatures get much warmer. We are all looking forward to spring. |

February 4, 2010 - They are here! We have our new piglets! Three sows have had their litters. This sleepy guy is ready to hit the sack. He's all warm under the heat lamp until the next time he's ready to get some nourishment from Mama. |

January 25, 2010 - Last weekend we showed some pigs at the Buckeye Winter Show Circuit. This pig raised on our farm won the lightweight crossbred barrow division. He was born in August. We are getting ready for some new pigs to be born. They will be available for 4-H and FFA kids to buy in April so they can get ready for the county fair. |

January 10, 2010 - Last night we had tempatures as low as 9 degrees! The pigs were warm and cozy inside the barn. We also got some frost and snow during the night that gives us this winter wonderland. We are now going to get ready for the new week ahead. |

January 1, 2010 - Winter has come. We hope you are having a great new year! This is Hollywood, our oldest sow, enjoying a treat. Today we made sure all the pigs had plenty of bedding since the temperature is going to be cold this week. |
