Farmer Mary thanks Wake Forest United Methodist Church for offering her the pumpkins they didn’t sell. All the animals of Winterpast Farm love to eat pumpkin. And, they really beautify the farm!
Farmer Mary and her daughter loaded up her car to the brim tonight and her friend Billy loaded his trailer. More loads to come tomorrow!
Winterpast Farm is closed to visits tomorrow while Farmer Mary catches up on chores. Like loading up free pumpkins!

Farmer Mary’s feathered friends all enjoyed “helping” when Farmer Mary was unrolling a big tarp to dry it off before putting it over the new round bales of hay out by the barn at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. Five peacocks and a parade of ducks suddenly decided they were needed right there right then.

Silkie breed chicks hatching today at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC! On the left are the newly hatched chicks with some duck eggs that Farmer Mary was picking up while she was moving the bbay chicks this morning . On the right in the photo the chicks are now under a red colored heat lamp in a brooder where they will live for the next six weeks or so. They hatched under a broody hen (unrelated) who is still setting on a few more eggs. The father is solid black in color and the mother is blue and gray.
