Over time you will get to know the farm through their eyes and will see how they spend their day with each other in a very rich, organic way.
Each vignette is a snapshot in time. Follow from one to another, then on to more and you can share in our unfoldment and journey.

A simple day ...

Not much is needed to entertain these wonderful five, Mac, Frieda, Minnie, Freya and Daniel. We simply played by the peppercorn tree for most of the day, making our one big move over to the pigs to play on the grass for a while.

This was very entertaining.  Mac found a piece of wood which started out as a pillow for everyone to go nigh-nighs on. From there it turned into a ship that all five were trying to sit on to go sailing. Mac then got everyone off and positioned his legs and said, 'I’m ridin on a stateboard.' (skateboard), and then 'I’m ridin on a tooda' (scooter). The others joined in and we all had a great laugh!

The children all played together with care and love, and I assisted them when needed. I had many parents around the farm admiring the sweetness between these children a lot today.  It was, gentle, loving and with a lot of creativity…
