Tristan Lambertson came to the farm with his Dad, Paul, last week - here are his reflections on his day!
"I had a great day at the Flying Mule Farm. Farmer Dan taught me how to work on a sheep farm. I got to see a lot of baby lambs. We spread fences out to make new pens, and I got to watch Taff heard the sheep. Farmer Dan also took me to the Edwards’ to pick-up firewood. While we were there he showed me how to know how old a tree is. As we were leaving, he let me smell a bay leaf that he had picked from a tree on the side of the road. I hope I’ll get to go back and farm again soon."
