After
completing our first full-year apprenticeship in December, we’ve moved to
Massachusetts to apprentice on two great farms for the year: North Plain Farm
& Blue Hill Farm.
One of the
things that we’re most excited about is working with the dairy cows at Blue
Hill Farm and learning what it takes to run a small dairy that sells raw milk.
We’ve only been here a few weeks, but it’s hard to imagine that watching the
sun come up while milking the cows will ever get old.
The two
farms focus primarily on livestock, so, in addition to milking the cows
everyday, we’ll be gaining more experience working with beef cows, pigs, layers
(egg-laying chickens), broilers (meat chickens), and meat goats.
