SonRidge Farm

*(Written by SonRidge Farm)*

I will be attending a 4-H Farm Camp in July.
While there I will learn things from tacking up and riding a horse...















to learning about processing & cleaning Angora Goat Fiber.







I will also be assigned a dairy goat; which I will be responsible for milking, feeding, everyday care & even learn how to show her.



And don't forget... I'm also assigned my very own "kid" (baby goat) for the week!






I will learn how to make blacksmith items in a forge


and even make cheese, butter, and ice cream.
I'll learn about bees and get to make my own beeswax lip balm.

And of course... much, MUCH more!

I'm going to have so much fun and I can't wait for the week to start. I will even be keeping my own blog updated for the week. Please follow my blog so you can see all the things I'm doing and learning.
We can even come to family day on the farm...for free! I know that I'll want to introduce all my family to each of the animals on the
farm.

Family Day On The Farm: August 6th 8-10am 2011
