Good morning folks.

Just reminder that I will be going live on Facebook for this year's (VIRTUAL) Open Farm Day.

915am - Pigs
11am - Sheep
1pm - Goats

Please remember that due to COVID-19, all official Open Farm Day events are online only. DO NOT visit any of the locations listed as participating unless you have confirmed first that they are offering any alternative arrangements.

This is for your safety and the safety of the farmers - big and small.

Thank you 🙂

On Sunday, September 20th, Simply Ducky Farm will be participating in Open Farm Day.

Due to COVID-19 this is an ONLINE ONLY event. You can join me online via Facebook at 915am, 11am, and 1pm.

Please DO NOT VISIT THE FARM as I am not accepting visitors during this event. If you arrive you will be politely denied entry.

Despite clear messaging I have been contacted by several families who are looking forward to their visit. It's neither safe or responsible to have Open Farm Day in-person (last year we had over 820 people show up) under the current circumstances.

Kindly enjoy the event online, keep you and your family safe, and if you would like to see the animals in-person you can book a private tour (see info on my website) by contacting me online.

Thank you,
- Crispin

The mighty Moo.

Moo lost about eight pounds since she arrived here last year but I still have to explain to people that she's not pregnant, she's just fat.

She's a whole lot of Moo.

Little Lilly was a bottle baby, a lamb rejected by her Mother, back in April of 2019 when she went off to have adventures at Wild Orchid Farm. Ashley and Georgia did a great job of raising a happy little sheep - who isn't quite so thrilled (yet) to be reaquainted with her cousins and Mother.

VIRTUAL OPEN FARM DAY Sunday, September 20th, 202

VIRTUAL OPEN FARM DAY

Sunday, September 20th, 2020

Unfortunately, due to public health recommendations, Open Farm Day is going to be a virtual only event this year.

This will be my third Open Farm Day and I will really miss seeing all the kids and adults come by to see my little farm. Last year we had over 800 visitors in just the five hours we were open!

Since it is always the kids (and kids at heart) who enjoy the animals the most, this year I have decided to take part in the Virtual Open Farm Day - for the kids.

Join me as I go live on Facebook at 9:15AM (Landrace/Yorkshire cross pigs), 11:00AM (North Country Cheviot sheep), and at 1:00PM it will be the Pygmy goats and Potato. at some point we'll also visit the chickens.

Each Live event will be fairly short and geared solely towards the kids. We'll feed the piggies some treats and give them back scratches. We'll meet little Bucket, the youngest lamb, and make sure the sheep say hi to everyone watching. And lastly, we'll visit with little Rhubarb, her Mother Princess Shouty Pants, all their friends, and Potato - the sheep who thinks she is a goat.

If anyone has any questions I would be happy to answer them in chat after the last live event but I'm afraid it will just be working my phone so I likely won't be able to reply during the live event.

If any of your kids have questions I can answer during the broadcasts, send them in! I'd be happy to mention your child's first name, read out the question, and answer it as best I am able.

Thank you all for your understanding but there can be no visitors on the farm during Open Farm Day- this is an online event only.

Visit Simply Ducky Farm on Facebook and look for the event to be notified on the big day 🙂

Another beautiful late summer morning, another successful attempt to sneak out of the house and surprise the sheepies while they're grazing.

Little Rhubarb is only six months old but she's already as tall as her Aunt Moo. Thankfully she's not as big as Moo though - Moo's a chunky girl even after losing weight since she arrived last fall 😋

Since goats are magnetically attracted to anything

Since goats are magnetically attracted to anything they can both jump upon and damage, there is a two strand electric fence keeping them away from the chicken tractors. This does not of course keep the chickens from wandering further into the goat field. None of the goats are very bothered by the chickens but potato has a habit of sneaking up on them and keeping an eye on them. usually she can get within about 4 ft before the chickens decide it's time to move on.

Little Rhubarb is starting to grow out of her baby face and is turning into a lovely young Nigerian Pygmy goat. No matter her age she'll always enjoy her scritches though.

Did you know my little farm is for sale? I do try to warn potential buyers of the long waits that improper use of signal lights can cause during the evening commute but I don't think they always believe me 🙄😉
