Meet Our Family (Staff)

Gerald (Head honcho)

 

Gerald and Bonnie

 

Gerald is our main guy, the "head honcho".  He is the one who does most of the dirty, sweaty work on the farm.  He designs and creates shelter and water systems for the animals, tends the garden, repairs things, sets up and moves fencing,  manages the farm for long-term sustainability and health of the soil, animals and people.

 In the above picture, he is showing Bonnie's 4-month pregnant bulge .

Below, Gerald is teaching how to cultivate melon plants.

Tractor and Jasmine (Security enforcement)

Jasmine

Jasmine and Tractor team up to protect the animals from predators.  They patrol the farm, protecting the broilers, hens, cows, guineas, sheep, cats, and Havah.  When the sheep wander off, Jasmine goes with them and brings them home.  When there is a threat, Tractor barks to alert and stands guard while Jasmine launches out on the offensive.  Coyotes fear her. They gave us some beautiful puppies last winter.
