Go Regenerative!

Was it an echo from the barnyard? Yesterday we walked the turkeys… (not to Boston!) to the paddock adjacent to the barn… No, these turkeys appeared to be the wake-up committee, scattered about the barnyard & entire hill pasture, vocalizing awfully close to bedroom windows of our farmhouse, the barn guesthouse and Laura’s folks home!

Summer Farm Views
