Rachel won another cooking contest this weekend at the Zebulon Farmers Market, this time the ingredient was squash. So, she made a yellow squash casserole. She has won $75 this summer in market credit in cooking contests. :celebrate

Not much going on the farm, other than we have sold quite a few goats. We sold 7 kids from this year earlier. Then we sold two yearlings Molly and Nutmeg a few weeks ago. I'm selling my 3 year old doe Daisy with her doeling kid from this year to a young girl. She is getting them in two weeks. I've got two wethers leaving on Wed. These people also want Rosemary's buckling when he is old enough, but I also have some people who want him intact. Not quite sure which way I'm going to go with that yet.
I only have one more that I want to sell and that's Caspian a 4 year old buck. I kind of hate to sell him, but we really don't have any further use for him.

I finally got around to building a proper hay feeder this weekend. Should save some time and maybe some waste. We will see.

I don't know that I'm the one to explain that. I'm not that great. Maurine and Rachel do most of showing.

There are a number of video's on You Tube

And I'm attaching a manual if you have adobe reader.
