Dear Customers,

Now that the spring is coming, we have started to cut, split and stack wood again, so it can be aged and ready for you in the fall. We cut down 10 dead elm, cherry and walnut trees which require clean-up. In addition, several customers have offered for us to pick up fallen wood for the business. We plan to do that over the next couple months.

We are continuing to take care of the lambs. Tonight we will be giving them both BO-SE and CD/T shots to prevent some potential illnesses. We give the BO-SE 21 days after birth and the CD/T 35 days after birth. All of the lambs are doing great and they continue to become bigger and stronger every day. They are actually quite difficult to catch.

Fun Fact: The original color associated with St. Patrick was blue, not green as commonly believed. In several artworks depicting the saint, he is shown wearing blue vestments. King Henry VIII used the Irish harp in gold on a blue flag to represent the country. Since that time, and possibly before, blue has been a popular color to represent the country on flags, coats-of-arms, and even sports jerseys.

Thanks,

Harry and Lauren Hawkes
