 So many problems, so many late nights and early morning. So many complicated problems to solve.
Sometimes we just need to look up. #justlookup #justlook #pasture #summer #eggs #farm #life  Happy New Year! May 2022 bring everyone inspiration to create!
#newyear #inspiration #eggs #pasturedeggs #artpalette #art And when one cannot find the rolling pin, just use a cider can:  My favorite design this year: the Superman   The recipe is on our website: Christmas gingerbread cookies.
Merry Christmas everyone!  This guy is always ready to run with me through the paddock or dig up a hole or some other mischief, as the last rays of sunlight are reaching down warmly over the hill tops.
Ok, I’m coming! Who could say no to these hazel eyes? #mischief #play #pasture #sunset #farmlife #maremma #eggs #sunset  "Amongst the tall grass
everything is short and everything is quiet amongst these walls of forts nothing can be seen, amongst the waves of green" --from the poem "Tall Grass" by R Guildenstern  That rare, precious, cherished, irreversible moment when they dog is smaller than the chicken ! We have used these weeks to socialise the Maremma puppies with chickens, as this is a gradual process and the bond takes time and patience to built. Naturally, dogs are carnivores and predators and chickens are quite low in the food chain. #maremma #eggs #pastured #pasturedeggs #puppies #training #preciousmomentsedit.   This past week we had plenty of rain, we couldn’t even get to some paddocks for days. Glad to enjoy some silver lining in the shape of a rainbow 🌈 #rainbow #rainydays #eggs #farmingintherain
 This week certainly feels like November in the Northern hemisphere, so snow wouldn’t be surprising. It’s actually the acacia tree, sluggishly undressing its beautiful spring blossoms. The chickens love to peck them so we think you might get sweet-flavoured eggs this week. #snow #november #freerange #pastured #eggs #sweeteggs #acacia #springisending #blossoms #petals #snowinnovember

#dogsmile #dogselfie #Maremma #freerange #pasturedeggs  Impressionism masterpiece by nature: with a lot of rain, and a bit of wind, our landscape looks like impressionist painting: “relatively small, thin, yet visible brush strokes”, usually with an open composition, and depicting everyday, ordinary scenes. #impressionism #farmlife #art #artisforever #chickens #grass #brushstrokes #wind #view #myoffice (Definition of Impressionism from Wikipedia)

Really, what more could one want from life? #farmersoffice #myoffice #chickens #chickenseverywhere #pastured #farmwork #farmlife #laptopandchickens #eggs #blossoms #spring  Proposing a new measure for grass growth: 1 CHICKEN LENGTH.
There is 1 horse power. Watt, the Scotish inventor, measured it by measuring how much weight a horse can lift while pulling a rope running through a pulley to a weight on the ground — one foot high in one second. 550 pounds of weight a foot high in one second. So we propose: 1 Chicken length of grass: the amount of grass grown in a good season in one month. #grass #growing #pasture  "When the world wearies and society fails to satisfy", there is always the crops and the sun. #sunset #workday #pasture #mixedfarming #cropping #freerange
-- loosely referring to Minnie Aumonier, the 19th century poet, painter, and costume designer.  Green eggs and ham… ugh… we mean green grass and eggs… we do so love // green grass and eggs … #drseuss #greeneggs #eggs #pastured #pasturedeggs #grass #spring.

 Not sure who is happier about virtual schooling: the dogs or the kids?

It rains, and the wind is never weary; ...Be still, sad heart! And cease repining; Behind the clouds is the sun still shining; Thy fate is the common fate of all, Into each life some rain must fall, Some days must be dark and dreary..." In each life some rain must fall, metaphorical or real, but there is still the sun behind all the dark clouds. -- From the poem 'The Rainy Day' by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow  Found the perfect COVID egg: a little bit jaded, all folded and crinkled on the outside, worn-down and not the pick of the litter. But full of good nutrition on the inside, and a little bit funny, to bring a smile to your faces.
Keep smiling, always :) #folded #egg #pasturedeggs #funnyegg #covidegg #jaded #covid #smile #bringasmile Got the front wheel out, back wheel went into the same hole 😂 … doing anything at the farm these days is a heroic adventure. Odysseus had an easy ride when he sailed for Troy. Considering getting one of those DUCK cars (the US Army DUKW) that can go straight in and out of water. Anyone have one we could borrow? #stuck #bogged #needatank #dukw #pastured #adventures #farmlife
Driving through the gates full speed, because otherwise we would sink :) - a wonderfully wet winter season.
 Looking for a coach big enough to fit 3 coach potatoes 🥔 🥔 🥔. These three puppies sleep all day if they can. This is deceptive though, Maremma sheepdogs, like all guardians, are nocturnal in. Foxes are active at night and so the Maremmas go around every night to let predators know they are on duty. They can sleep all day. We know they work hard at night. #maremma #puppies #sleeping #nightshift #pastured #eggs #duty #guardians   The question is: will a dinosaur 🦕 hatch out of an egg that weighs 180g? This is the biggest egg ever found, said Tabea. If we put a dozen such eggs together, they will weight 2.16 kilos! Evolutionary proof that indeed, chickens and dinosaurs are related.

The freedom to flap and fly wherever you want to, whenever you want to. The freedom to go anywhere, anytime. Freedom is delight. #freedom is #pasture-raised #pastured #eggs #fly #delight #poetry #motion #motionphotography #ibelieveicanfly  It was our red tractor that pushed the clouds away today, so that it is going to be sunny tomorrow ☀️😜🚜 #opticalillusion #illusion #clouds #rainyday #redtractor #calm #pasturedeggs #pastured #eggs #maremma
 Down, down the rabbit hole, next to the hedge, could you spot the two eggs, just laid? #hidden #eggs #pastured #pasturedegg #hay
