KFP 4H 2024 New Animals

KFP 4H New Animals at the Farm

By Elsie Hoy, Kinder Farm 4H Livestock Club Reporter

Some of the kids in the Kinder Farm Park 4-H Livestock Club have gotten their 2024 animals. We have had two new additions since the last newsletter, but plan for more animals to come in the next few months. In our 4-H club we learn about farm animals and the process of raising and caring for livestock.

Clara says she likes that when Blue Snow “eats she always nods her head up and down like ‘Yes’ - it’s like she’s talking!” Photo Credit Annemarie Larsen.
