Staying warm at Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC with new purple C.E. Schmidt insulated overalls from Tractor Supply (big sales right now!) and our Central Boiler whole house woodstove. Farmer Mary’s daughter, Elizabeth, took her turn just now.
Farmer Mary uses empty feed bags to cover gate latches during icy rain like today. This way the latch won’t freeze shut and she won’t have to try to jump over the gate! Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC uses a lot of feed. Most feed is purchased from Tractor Supply in Youngsville or Southern States in Creedmore.
Hope everyone, and their animals, are staying safe and warm today.
CHARLOTTE ROSE, one of our pregnant sheep, is enjoying the hay buffet this morning at Winterpast Farm. Farmer Mary is very thankful she had this big hay delivery and the time to get it all securely covered before todays weather arrived!.

DORIS the goose always stands by her man at Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC. Neither sleet nor snow makes her desert what she considers the perfect male-tall dark and handsome, steadfast and true, and always waiting for her. Farmer Mary wishes she could find a man like that herself but at least she has her little man BARNEY the dachshund who shares all the same attributes (except for tall) He even cries every time she leaves the room!
Snow and sleet in Wake Forest NC this morning. We hope everyone is safe and warm. Come see us when the weather clears!
