the herb farm

Dante has been taking a new pottery class in Andover, which is just a hop, skip and a jump from Caprilands Herb Farm in Coventry. So we headed over to check it out while he was in class. The grounds are beautiful, tho in need of some care.



The scottish blackface sheep are a little overdue for a haircut. But so excited to get some grain they were leaping with joy (or surprise at our presence) as they passed by.

Lulu, delighted to be holding this 3 day old lamb!

The lamb had gotten separated from it's mother (who was fortunate to have gotten sheared), and we watched them calling for each other until the mother came running over to where the baby was. When the lamb nurses and is latched on and getting milk, the little tail waggles adorably.
