Rain rain rain and mud, mud, mud…. Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC will be closed today.Here are a few of our pigs (PETUNIA and DAISY) and some of the goats (MOLLY with son MAX and daughter CATY) hanging out together in the driest pen. A volunteer family built the really nice no-sag roof for this pen so it is always nice and dry.
Farmer Mary spends alot of time on rainy days like today running outside every few hours to get all the accumulated rain off the tarps of many animal pens. The whole pen will implode if too much heavy rain accumulates. That has happened in the snow as well. One day all pens will have nice sturdy roofs!
Hope you are safe and dry today!
Thank you for supporting a small local farm family.
