It's beginning to look a lot like... summer?

Southtown won't be getting a white Christmas this year for sure. 73*F and sunny. The goats and I are appreciating the warmth and extra long growing season. We have only occasionally supplemented with hay so far as we've had very few cold nights. Honeysuckle and privet are growing wonderfully (the plants, not the goats) providing plenty of forage opportunities, helped along by a bit of Christmas cheer.


Rosie O Lee Creations (our handmade felted, crocheted, and knitted gifts) had a great Christmas with lots of personalized handmade creations that were a blast to make and receive. Our little elves were pretty busy getting things done.
