Farley Cat and Lucy Goat, new roommates. Little Lucy is a doe born here on the farm a couple of years ago this spring. She has had health issues and requires warmth ... she will be our house goat for a night or two.
It's that time of year, when all our paths our ice. These ice grippers are a must for us getting around the farm without breaking bones. Takes me back to my mountain climbing days with crampons.
Mountains.  They have captured my attention since I first saw them in my mid twenties, and soon found myself moving from the boreal forests of North Western Ontario to the mountain ranges of Vancouver Island.  I have been in love with them ever since.  Much of my early work is reflected in the mountains I explored for many years, climbing, hiking and learning the rhythm of their language. 
Good morning from sunny and cold Cape Breton!!
This is Leonard, and he is one tough rooster. This is his third winter here on the farm and the cold temps and blowing snow don't even phase him.
The winter storm has arrived and it has been a busy day here on the farm. It will be at least a couple of days of shoveling and some repair on one of our high tunnels.
