 The shortest days of the year may sometimes bring the most joy.
The first lambs were born at the farm, and the most curious chickens dare to go very close. #lambs #chickens #pastured #sustainablefarming #regenerative #agriculture #multispecies Photography by Thomas  “Blow, blow, thou winter wind,
Thou art not so unkind As man’s ingratitude;” Blow, blow the winter wind did today. We have nothing but humble gratitude when holding a warm egg early in the morning, just being laid. #warmegg #winter #wind #pastured #freerange #eggs #gratitude #warmth #shakespeare --from “As You Like It” by William Shakespeare, Act II Scene VII. -Photography by Haydn  “To go in the dark with a light is to know the light.
To know the dark, go dark. Go without sight, and find that the dark, too, blooms and sings, and is traveled by dark feet and dark wings.” During the darkest days close to Winter Solstice, we are putting our new birds to sleep in the caravans, and we can definitely confirm that the dark ‘sings’ and ‘is traveled by feathers and feet’ 😊 #dark #chickens #pastured #wintersolstice #shortdays #poetry #farming #sunset #beauty #nightclouds #eggs --from the poem “To Know the Dark” by the poet – and also fellow farmer! – Wendell Berry Photography by Haydn  One of our younger Maremmas, enjoying some play time on the first day of Winter, June 1st.
The importance of play, of approaching each moment as a new thing, full of possibility, discovery and beauty. The freedom to play all day for chickens, Maremmas and – sometimes – farmers 😊 If this is what winter will be like this year, please bring it on! #Maremma #play #winter #pastured #eggs #freedom #chickens |
