CLAIRE, one of the two mini donkeys at Winterpast Farm, will be attending several Live Nativities at local churches during the month of December. Several of the Winterpast sheep and goats will also be at these events. Farmer Mary will be providing complete information about them all soon. She is still finalizing some arrangements. Live Nativities are her favorite part of the Christmas season. She hopes to see many “Friends of the Farm” in attendance.
Three year old male shows “eye” feathers which will grow longer and longer over the next few months.
Amazing support structure to hold up those long tail feathers!
White male in pen is two-no “eye” feathers are seen yet. Other male in pen is 3. Peacock outside showing off is also 3.
Another 2 year old male above.
Winterpast Farm peacocks are fun to watch this season! Photos were taken today. Young males are trying out their newly growing tail feathers in anticipation of the early spring “wedding” season. When you visit Winterpast Farm be sure to bring the guys a snack to help them keep up their strength! They love to eat kale, grapes, dry oatmeal, cheerios, dry dog food, thinly sliced apples, grated carrots and more.

A big THANKS to several “Friends of the Farm” who have recently donated fleece blankets and old pillow cases and towels that we will use for bedding for guinea pigs and bunnies here at Winterpast Farm! Farmer Mary is thinking about the cold weather that will be coming soon. We can always use old towels (birthing is messy!) pillow cases, sheets, old sleeping bags, thick plastic sheeting, tarps and more as we begin winterizing here at Winterpast Farm. Donations are welcome any time. They can always be left at the barn as a sweet surprise for Farmer Mary 🙂

Red Velvet Bunny cake, lots of sweet bunnies to snuggle, a pig to walk on a leash, peacocks to feed…celebrating turning 8 was memorable for friends and family today at a farm party at Winterpast Farm.
Farmer Mary likes to encourage all ages to “multi-task”. Here,roommates CINNAMON TOAST and Teddy BEAR share a snuggle and a snack.
One chiicken was a bit naughty during cake time! Do you see her on the table?
Farmer Mary’s favorite little rooster, BOB, was quite popular with visitors today.
Great teen volunteers including Farmer Mary’s daughter, Elizabeth, and long time volunteer Evan, helped make the party go smoothly.
