The Perrines…and the Ferro\u2019s adjacent…provide us with 20 acres of pasture for our young heifers. We\u2019re convinced that the tender and personal care of these two couples make our young ones even more gentle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Could I say our calves our \u201chouse broke\u201d? Well, grandchild broke anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just around the corner, the Rowland\u2019s are keeping a close eye on our young steers. They have about 20 acres they\u2019re graciously sharing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All these properties are about 10 minutes from Thistle Hill…close enough for us to check frequently too. But the calves have never complained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We call it Summer Camp! Again thanks to the Perrines, Ferro\u2019s and Rowland\u2019s!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
