New babies!

Our yaks are still in Minnesota (less than a month until their arrival here - we're in the countdown!). And we've just learned that our herd has grown from 20 to 22! Over the last couple of days, 2 healthy calves were born. It is a good sign that these calves have arrived early, as this is when the western herds typically calve, and they tend to have a higher calving rate. We're hoping our herd continues to grow, and can't wait to welcome all of the animals to our farm in the Mad River Valley.

The Yak T-Shirts Are Here!

As we gear up for our yaks' April arrival, we are beginning to get excited.
