Building project
We've been working hard this past week. We had to build a home for the 2 newest members of our farm family. 2 sweet little Berkshire pigs.
We did all the work ourselves, starting with cutting down some trees
and carting them to the build site
We hand dug all the fence post holes and put in our posts
and put togeter a round wood building frame
We then covered the frame with recycled tin
The smaller tree limbs became fence rails and a piece of pallet became the gate
Then, this evening, Paul picked up the pigs from a near by farm. The kids have named them Lucy and Brownie
