We are Nearly There!

It's Saturday night, and its just 2 days to go until our Open Day on Monday 29th August.

The Open days starts at 11 and finishes at 3, and there will be loads to do.

Today we have been washing chairs, benches and tables, and weeding the yard in all that rain.

All is going well, but the cup cake lady has let us down - she is ill - so asking mother-in-law to make a few extra cakes.

We are going to have places to sit, which should be welcome with all the activities going on - I wonder if "HAM" the pig, will have her piglets on Monday - it is her due date.

Bank Holiday Monday Fun Day - 29th August

Monday 29th August, seems very close now, and we are getting some tidying up done!

We are expecting a litter of piglets on the day, if the gilt called "HAM" gives birth exactly 3 months, 3 weeks, and 3 days after she met with HENRY our boar.

I have just typed the programme, and its great to see HERMES the heavy weight horse is back to give a demonstration of how she can pull logs and trees out of forests. This is very sustainable, and gives her owner an income, as he sells the wood.

Hope to see you on Monday between 11 and 3 pm.
Any queries, e-mail them to beef@parkhillfarm.co.uk
