We’d like to introduce our newest addition to the Farm – “Socks” the cow:<\/p>\n

Socks, the cow<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

He is about a year old, and he’ll be with us on the Farm for about another 6 months or so. \u00a0Make sure you stop and say hello when you are visiting the fruit stand over the summer.<\/p>\n

Socks was delivered on Saturday by Cheryl Lange, who runs a livestock operation in De Luz. \u00a0We’ve known Cheryl for years, and used to get all of our pigs from her operation years ago. \u00a0Our last cow was also from Cheryl. \u00a0Socks is a Hereford\/Mini-Hereford cross.<\/p>\n
