What a week it's been at the farm this week, I feel like I need to lie down. There's no time for rest though, especially with the CaenhillCC photo calendar created by myself, Chris and Casey almost complete. We've had a few last minute photo switches, a few things we still wanted to capture, but we're almost ready to share it with you. I just hope ...

If you look around you, you'll notice the change in the season and all the beauty it brings to the world. The leaves that change colors, the animals leaving for their yearly migration or the temperature getting cooler. I think my favorite season has to be autumn because of the colors, it's perfect for photography, especially if you time it right fo...

With children returning to school in the UK and the temperatures slowly but surely getting colder, it's safe to say the summer pretty much is over. What a summer it's been at the farm though, there've been lots of live streams to share the farm with you, the first of our volunteers returning, Casey and I back with the animals, our first tours and j...

I don't want to leave my thank you to the end this week, because on Friday we said goodbye and good luck to an important member of the CaenhillCC volunteering team. Sarah joined the farm team a few years ago, but now she's off on a new adventure and we're all going to miss her. She's been fantastic looking after our animals, fixed more fences than ...

As I have mentioned in my previous posts, I live on a lake in Minnesota with my parents which gives us some great nature watching opportunities. In the 4 years we have lived here, it is difficult not to take up nature watching, especially birding as we are a stopover during the yearly migrations. In spring when the ice has melted just enough, the w...

What a week it's been at the farm this week and it's really exciting to be ending the week with lambs. It's really unusual to have lambs this time of year, but as you know our farm is full of surprises and on Friday Devon and Dorset arrived. I'd love to say that they arrived with no trouble at all, but unfortunately both lambs had their legs in the...

This week marked one year since we started our patreon page where for the first time we gave you the chance to sponsor our animals. One year later we have 242 patreons and I think each and every one of them is amazing. To have a regular income to help with animal feed and care is more than I could have dreamt of, we only wish we had more time to cr...

Every time I sit and think that perhaps the week has been a little quieter at the farm, I go to my laptop and scroll through the CaenhillCC social media channels and realise that, as usual, there's loads to say. Then I think about everything the team has achieved behind the scenes too and suddenly I'm worried about boring you, so in the interest of...

I am incredibly proud to start this week's roundup with the news that CaenhillCC has been shortlisted for the Digital Innovator Award as part of the British Farming Awards 2020. The whole team has worked incredibly hard to get the project to the point that it's at today, there've been sleepless nights, long days, students, volunteers and a crazy mi...

I know I don't normally start with the biggest news, but this is too huge to wait. Chris left the farm. That's right, our one and only Chatty Farmer stepped away from the farm and on more than one occasion too. Not only has Chris been sharing some amazing footage of the canal just a stones throw away from the farm through his Chatty Farmer social m...
