Boys in a Rut

Cutest Cat

people love their animals the best and we are no exception - this cat is so small and has large snow shoe feet...she is so cute!  Pawnee, born in 2004.

GOAT PEN

these corral panels were added to create a place in the winter where the goats could be fed hay without creating a mess inside the barn.  goats are famously wasteful.  below they are on pasture.  the ideal place for them!

these are all the girls...15 of them..the does born here are named after Greek/Roman Goddesses

Sorrelina

Clover

Aeos

Pearl

Hera

Hygenia/Undie

Venus

Thea

Jaia

Diana

Gaia

Maia

Aphodite

Athena

Khaos

the rabbits come at night after the girls are back in the barn, to pick at all the hay they left behind.

EARTH PRAYER

from the book of same title:

EARTH PRAYER

"And God saw everything he had made, and found it very good.
And He said: This is a beautiful world that I have given you.
Take good care of it, do not ruin it.
It is said: Before the world was created, the Holy One kept creating worlds and destroying them.  Finally he created this one,
and was satisfied.  He said to Adam: This is the last world I shall make.  I place it in your hands: hold it in trust."

Year in Review:Pondering the Past

here are some photos from our farm that bring back memories of this past year:

the goats got a new pasture...

June Royal, our older horse at 33 years continues to thrive

as does the herd...we are grateful for that.  Their fencing was redone all the way around to make it completely escape proof...because the grass is always greener...

and Jim Dandy got his groove back...with the help of a daily pill to regulate his body temperature ...pineal gland...to combat Cushings...it worked!

WE WISH YOU LOVE,KINDNESS, AND FAITH

this beautiful wreath reminds me of the circle of life...

we follow the natural cycles...from the care and cozy comfort we give to animals...to the shelter, food, water, and freedom towards a long life, to their composted manure that provides nutrients, to the goat grazing that clears some of our land, to the cats and dogs that keep vermin at bay....and all they give to us...in beauty and spirit

...for the animals we rescue and care for ...from the wild mustangs to the owners who give up beloved pets due to circumstances ...we extend our heartfelt wishes for PEACE & KINDNESS!  May Love Be With You and Yours.  Always, Ambrosia Farms.
