So the season starts on February 11. Jared and Leslie are bringing the goats down from Wisconsin. We will travel by Big Blue the truck to Downer's Grove to retrieve them.
The season starts very soon with Esther's kidding date of April 2. We are making proposals for equipment for the milking portion as well as fencing for the pasture. David and I are thankful for the opportunities to seek help from foundations. |
