Guinea pig cages are stacked in the warm well house these past few frigid nights at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. Other guinea pigs and bunnies are in the heated garage stacked to the ceiling! Farmer Mary is glad the super cold nights will end tomorrow!
Everyone will be happy to get back outside.
Farmer Mary and a great teen volunteer have been checking the pregnant sheep 🐑 and goats 🐐 all day long today and no one seems to be quite ready for birthing but animals can be very surprising and give birth the minute you turn your back!
Stay tuned for updates here and at the Winterpast Farm FB page and at blog posts at www.winterpast.org. No need to text Farmer Mary to ask if there are babies yet!
***************************
Farmer Mary still needs some tall (teen or adult) help fixing up some more maternity pens at Winterpast Farm. Read the Volunteer section at www.winterpast.org then text Farmer Mary to get started!

Throw Back Thursday to two years ago when sweet EMMA the sheep was born. She is named after Farmer Mary’s youngest son’s girlfriend. That’s the definite seal of approval around here!❤️🐑🙂
EMMA the sheep is pregnant and due any time. Farmer Mary keeps checking the barn at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC.

King of the mulch pile is HENRY (the cutest) puppy at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC! Farmer Mary keeps hoping he will actually help spread the mulch but at least he entertains volunteers who have been helping with that! If YOU put on a few extra pounds over the holidays consider some fun outdoor Farm Aerobics! Farmer Mary will loan you a pitchfork and a wheelbarrow and you can warm right up on a chilly day here at Winterpast Farm!

Follow the farm fun on Instagram. Farmer Mary posts on the Winterpast Farm FB page several times a day but followers get very few of her posts. That’s because FaceBook wants Farmer Mary to pay to send her posts to her own followers! Sorry, we have no advertising budget! Farmer Mary spends all her money caring for and feeding all the animals! So, follow the farm on Instagram at winterpast_farm.
