We were lucky to be invited to Beth’s farm at Egmont Village to experience a little of farming life and the new born lambs and calves.  Beth has a miniature pony called Mel and we were all able to have a ride on her.  We fed the calves milk and hay, bottle fed the lambs, chattered with the chooks, had a pony ride and finished off with morning tea on the lawn.

The farm experience is not se readily available to our city children these days and we thank Alyssa and her family and friends for making such an effort to make our visit possible.
