Wind Damage
We are thankful we had no notable damage from the significant wind that swept through the region this week. The worst we suffered was that a tarp tore on the rabbit hoophouse, and a small hoophouse feed area cover flipped over. Trouble is, when the small hoophouse flipped the goats walked on it. That bent it pretty badly, and I don’t know that we’ll be able to bend it back. I was able to stand it back up, but I don’t know how well it works in its new bent shape. So overall the goats did more damage than the wind did.
Barn Cats
Since we haven’t posted about it recently, let me remind how you much we love our barn cats! Here’s Hunter, keeping the feed free from mice.
Enjoying Rabbit
One of the joys of raising rabbits is getting to enjoy delicious rabbit meat! This week we made roast rabbit, and it was tasty! It was so simple, too, just like cooking a roast chicken. I preheated the oven to 375, coated the rabbit with olive oil and seasonings, and put it in the oven. I flipped it halfway through to ensure even cooking. It took about an hour to cook. We always recommend using a meat thermometer to tell when meat is done, and rabbit should be cooked to 165 degrees, just like chicken.
Internships Available
Spring and summer are just around the corner! We currently have availability for 1-2 week internships through February and March. We are also looking for a long-term intern starting mid-June.
If you live locally and would like to intern on a part-time basis, we have an opening to help Mondays or Tuesdays from 9am-noon.
