Well, it is spring here at Burrow Downs, though with the cold winds and overcast skies here today you wouldn't really know it. Still spring means new beginnings so it is as good a time as any to start a blog. While it is cold, there are lots of new beginnings here at Burrow Downs at the moment. After a slow cold winter the vegetable and herb gardens and beginning to look green and inviting again and we have new lambs in the paddocks. Also two newborn crossbred poddy lambs given to us after they were born at the abbatoir when their mothers were sent to slaughter. Once grown, Flopsy and Sox as they have been nicknamed will be joining our flock to breed lambs for our freezer. With the cold here they are wearing jackets at night to keep them warm in the lamb pen.
