It was great to be back with a blog last week, thank you to everyone who's back reading and everyone who's just joining. Of course I published and realised so many things I'd forgotten, but I'm back with my trusty tick list full of things to mention, so let's see how I get on this week, where I of course have to start with Storm Franklin. No, this ...

How are we nearly half way through December already, with Christmas under two weeks away? It only feels like yesterday I was telling you all about last year's panto at the farm. Now we're back already, counting down to Christmas, opening our advent calendars and looking forward to another farm panto. Yes, we enjoyed it so much last year that we're ...

At CaenhillCC there are so many animals who have come and gone. They have come to us in need of a new home, good care and the chance to live a stress free life and Chris works hard with Caroline, Claire, Helie and some amazing volunteers to deliver that. Unfortunately though, there also comes a time when we need to say goodbye. Thankfully not all f...

Happy Halloween. I hope whatever you are doing today, whether you are out getting treats, at home apple bobbing or simply ignoring the doorbell, you have a great one. It's not normally an occasion I'd get all too involved in myself, let's face it, you don't really see many Halloween decorations or trick or treaters on a farm. I can't resist the opp...

Hello, I'm back, or if you are new to this blog, then welcome. It's the time of week when I get to catch you up on all of the antics at the farm, both human and animal. It used to be something I do weekly but I have a baby who doesn't like to sleep as much as I do and he's been Christened amoungst all the craziness, but I will get back to a ro...

If I'm honest, the beginning of this last fortnight came with sadness for our team after learning of another loss, someone who is very much in our hearts. While we could have stopped some of our work to process the news, if there's anything we've learnt recently, it's that finding a reason to smile in the day can make such a difference. At the farm...

The team might not have had Casey and I at the farm this week, strangely it was too hot, but what a week they had. It would've been a little easier for them if the sun wasn't quite so powerful, but hey, the weather is rarely perfect and it didn't stop the work this week. To be honest there is very little that stops our team, especially Chris who is...

It's been a great week at the farm this week because Casey and I finally returned, haha. Ok, it was actually still quite a busy and normal week, even with our visit, but it was great to be back. It's been so difficult for Casey and I to be with the team in person following the lack of sleep we're having courtesy of the baby of our house. Though, wi...

It's been a busy week for all of team CaenhillCC while we try to catch up on essential work and new projects, but while I should be giving myself a rest, I have a baby who likes to keep me awake. So, instead of scrolling through social media or staring at the nursery walls, I thought I'd write my blog. Give you a bit of an update with a Father's Da...

It's been quite a week but one of the highlights for me has been the visit from Lola. She came to the farm on Tuesday to celebrate her 100th Birthday and fulfill her wish of holding a chick. We were of course more than happy to help and Chris added a few extra surprises along the way as he does. I really hope Lola had a day to remember, she is an i...
