BARNEY is in full bloom 🌼 at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. Sweet 18 year old BARNEY was Farmer Mary’s ancient Dachshund who was her faithful partner ❤️ at Winterpast Farm for many years. Farmer Mary buried him with a variety of bulbs which bloom every year. Do YOU remember BARNEY?

Hard to believe that this pen, which Farmer Mary last used as a time out pen for HENRY (the cutest ) puppy when he was
naughty, is now a lovely roofed, tarped, maternity pen housing sweet GERMANY and her day old twin lamb daughters.
Big Thanks to @larryscoffee in Raleigh who donates empty coffee bean bags that Farmer Mary uses for several things including, shown here, being the first layer of flooring for a maternity pen at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. This will be covered with straw and will keep the babies healthy especially if the rain returns! Thanks Larry!
And BIG Thanks to a great farm volunteer who even brought her Mom and Dad along today to help get a roof on another maternity pen so GERMANY and her one day old twins would have a safe home.
Farmer Mary truly appreciates the help her volunteers do to help her care for the animals at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. She couldn’t have raised the new roof without a lot of help! See a final pic of the happy new family in FB comments.

Fun times today at the St. Patrick’s Day Event at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. Baby twin lambs were born to GERMANY the Shetland sheep and farm visitors had the opportunity to go out in the back pasture with Farmer Mary and meet the new arrivals.
Farmer Mary is out of maternity pens and could really use some adult or tall child help ASAP reroofing a pen that imploded from the weight of snow back way in December.

Great pic that a recent farm visitor shared with Farmer Mary of the solid white male peacock at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC.
Farmer Mary purchased his egg from a peacock breeder three years ago and put it under a broody hen. Three patient long years later…wow!!
The young male has been spreading his tail trying to impress the ladies (called “peahens”) since the short season of peacock love is fast approaching. When not showing off, the white male is very happy to eat out of farm visitors hands. He loves grapes, kale, romaine lettuce, plain Cheerios, and blueberries.
