This Mama goose has been patiently waiting on this clutch of eggs for days now. Geese are VERY protective of their eggs and will certainly hiss and bite you if you get too close! So … we will keep our distance and patiently wait for goslings. Hopefully we have a photo of that soon.
Isn’t it amazing how well she blends in with her surroundings? Nature is amazing!

Well we still burn wood the “old fashioned” way at May Farms. No switches, no space heaters… we chop our wood and burn it through out the winter in our fireplace. As kids I think we all remember my dad having us take turns sitting in front of the fire and then laying next to him as “portable space heaters”. When we cooled off he’d send us back and it was the next kids turn. I remember dad building a fire and bragging about the picturesque quality of his work. “This fire looks like it should be on a movie! You kids see that? THAT is how you build a fire!” There was no mistaking we burnt wood to heat our home as you could smell it as you pulled up our long driveway. Our clothes and hair gave away the fact that we had a wood burning fire place as well. As we got older we were lovingly teased by our friends at school who told us we smelled like “camp fire” or “bacon”.
Every winter my dad would wrangle my two sisters, brother and I on a usually sunny day over winter break and we would head to the creek bottom with our little Jeep pick-up pulling the blue wood splitter dad bought at an auction and a large dump truck that BARELY fit underneath the tunnel. Literally inches separated the wobbly red walls of the old truck and the solid cement ceiling of the tunnel that connected us to the North side of our farm under Interstate -70. On our bumpy ride over to the creek he would ramble on about how “these are the best years of your life! You will look back on these days with fond memories!” How I wanted to believe him, and how I feared for the quality of the rest of my life if this was truly the “BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE?!”
Thank you to all of those who celebrated a “May Farms Christmas” with us last night. Over 100 of you dance, ate and were very merry! We look forward to this evening every year and as always it was one to remember. We hope that this Christmas season finds you surrounded by loved ones and feeling the spirit that goes along with the meaning of Christmas. We know we feel it each and every time we open our farm to families like yours. We hope to see you again in the new year whether it be for a wedding, company party or a family fun day on the farm.

This is the last weekend to get pumpkins too so bring out the family and enjoy a beautiful fall day at May Farms!
Well Halloween is in ONE WEEK and we have too many pumpkins. All pumpkins are 1/2 price! That’s right, 50% off. So if you have been dragging your feet on pumpkin picking you are in luck! Make sure to get plenty for pumpkin pie and Thanksgiving decorations too! Pumpkins are great decorations straight through November!
Please click here for prices.
As the first frost of the season always seems to come too early for our pumpkin patch we planned ahead this year! We covered many of our pumpkins with “hay blankets” to protect them from the cold. As a result we’ve got several still available and just in time for Halloween! This little guy found his perfect pumpkin and we hope you bring your family out to find yours too! We expect beautiful weather this weekend. See you in the patch!
Good morning! Here’s a view from the patch this morning!
