Farm, Food and Fiber Tour

  The weekend was capped off with a trip to the laundromat. Of course I'm walking around much better without those crutches, so Terri thought, ok, go do laundry. HA. Typical. No really she met up with a friend at the Brattleboro Co-op that was just down the road from the laundromat. After the final chore we had to take care of we went on a tour of Franklin Farm in Guilford, VT. This weekend was a chance for local people to appreciate their local farms and see where their food comes from.

  The Franklin Farm is an eighth generation farm. They have cows, chickens and the cutest horse I have ever seen. They also make Maple syrup! Yumm...

  Terri brought her other camera and when she was taking pictures this horse popped her head out! She was very friendly. A young lady who worked there came out with a wire basket full of eggs. When we went inside to look at the baby cows, some called Liz, Viva and Whiskey, we heard what sounded like a bull. On the other side of the barn was a cow. She looked like it was time to be milked. She just kept mooing really loud, standing in front of her milking stall. I got her to come pretty close to me but I wasn't much good to her if I wasn't going to milk her so she walked away from me looking disappointed.
