We finally had a show this week!!

It’s warm enough to be back out in the the barn this week!! We have 3 great farm phone calls. I have a special request though. We’re going to be out of town for 3 weekends, and I want to put together some shows while we’re on the road. It will basically be farm phone sections, so that means I need your calls to the farm phone at 206-202-GOAT. Give us tips, give us stories, ask questions. Be as long as you like, call back if you’re cut off after 5 minutes.

In this weeks show:

  • Farm Phone request
  • Farm Phone: 206-202-GOAT. Sheep, to udder wash, to dexters

Due to our hosting company falling off of the internet at a particularly bad time last nigh the post went up with a very incomplete file, so here is try number 2. In this weeks show we have FOUR great farm phone calls. They take us to task, provide great info, and over all wonderful calls. In the show:

  • Weather, it’s winter what else?
  • Farm phone: 206-202-GOAT. 4 great calls

Welcome back to another week. We’re back to the normal show, and this week it’s pretty relaxed. We look at winter apparel thanks to a great call to the farm phone at 206-202-GOAT, then we go through the round up and farm section. Winter is here so the round up is pretty short this time! This week I promise to get a video extra up too.
