Apparently, when Does give birth in the Spring they like to nest in the middle of a meadow!

One morning, John and the horse team were cutting one of the fields of haylage and stumbled upon sleeping babes.

Luckily, John spotted these beauties and was able to relocate them out of harms way. What a heart-warming experience for us all to share.

We now have our delicious A2/A2 raw cheese in “Unsalted”

After much demand, we crafted an unsalted cheddar cheese. Many of you have been asking for a “No-Salt” raw A2/A2 cheese for your health.

We pride ourselves on flavor and it took time to develop an unsalted cheese that could match our quality taste. And, we did it! We are starting off with Unsalted Mild Cheddar.

Please give us feedback. If you like it, we can experiment with other flavors.

Wildlife at Burke's Garden

The diversity of wildlife is incredible here at Burke’s Garden. The lush pastures provide a nourishing habitat for an abundance of mammals, birds and reptiles. On any given day, you will see rabbits, squirrels, opossum, skunks, fish, frogs and salamanders in the streams, turkey, osprey, owls, hawks, king fisher’s, vultures, blue herons and much much more.

Here is a snapping turtle spotted this week. So much life and death in the Garden as all the species on the food chain get nourished.

Lucky Breaks

We had a break in the weather this week which melted the snow. The creek waters rose, the animals nibbled on some new sprouting greens, and we enjoyed the tease of Spring. I’m happy to report that of the two downed milk cows from the brutal cold last month, one of them, Dilly, we were able to get back on her feet with physical therapy and massage and save her life.

Blistery Weather on the Farms

Two cows went down. One did not make it. We are trying to nurse the other back. Besides the regular milking, bottling, feeding, and making butter, the daily routine now includes feeding the animals behind wind breaks, breaking ice in watering troughs, bringing many into the shelters, especially the sheep whose lambs are more susceptible to predators at nighttime.
