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.

A New Goat at the Farm - Clara Larsen is raising Blue Snow as a breeding project. Blue Snow is a Kiko goat who was born in July 2023 and came to the farm in December 2023. 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.
