Our WWOOFUSA fall project is designing and planting a new butterfly garden! Our farm was lucky to bring in three wonderful volunteers from Germany and the US to help with fall projects.
Today we removed the tarp from the old hayfield and the fun begins!
The butterfly garden will be full of pollinator-friendly plants, and also a learning space for our children’s programs. Bird houses, benches and water features will hopefully attract all varieties of insects and birds….
More pics to come as we develop…

Momma and her chicks!
Perplexed at the disapparance of their pond, the ducks continue their search.
Our CSA mixer today! Mixing our homemade potting soil and meeting new friends. We are using grow sacks this year as starters.
We have a Bluebird Trail on the farm about a mile long. With over 30 birdhouses to choose from, bluebirds, tree swallows and dozens of other birds nest and visit each springtime. Our Naturalist Monika made little information stops along the way to teach about plant and wildlife. Our Apiary is also on the trail and also a pond to explore. We are preparing now for the bluebirds to return.!
Fresh vegetables, herbs, fruit, flowers and eggs are included in our CSA garden shares. From late May until early October members have choices each week what they will pick. Later in the season we also include homemade jams and juices.
Knowing where your food comes from and how it is grown is part of our CSA model. Participating in the planting and harvesting of your own food is another.
Thank you everyone who attended our Christmas Nativity. Thank you especially to our wonderful horse/donkey trainer Ashley who made the cart rides possible, and our farm helpers.
Looking forward to our Sunday event!
Cart rides and new friends on the farm.
Fall....
Farm visits on Saturday and our wonderful CSA days!
Field trip fun...

Our Spring Nature hunt was chilly and muddy and fun.

Our ideal spring break: Tapping maple trees! 🍁
“Our first WWOOFUSA volunteer arrived this week in a snowstorm!
Anhri is an exchange student from Osaka Japan, and chose to work on a farm for her spring break rather than have fun on the beach.
Tapping the maple trees and seeding the pastures kept our wonderful volunteer busy! In her free time we learned some Japanese cooking. We look forward to another great season of growing and learning with our WWOOF volunteers!”

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then these smiles tell the whole story! Bluebird Trail Farm graciously donated several short stays to CareFirst for hospice patients and their families to visit and enjoy relaxation in their farm based AirBnB. Marta Brinkhas and her family embraced the opportunity and the farm's peaceful surroundings. ❤
Lisa started her Pathway to Employment at the begining of this year. Over the past year, Lisa has participated in many shadows, group activities, stress management class, and is working on improving many social skills.
Her first shadow was at Turtle Leaf Café, where she had the opportunity to learn how to do food prep.
Then, she did a work experience at Plato's Closet - Elmira, NY where she learned many new skills such as how to tag and sensor clothes, rack maintenance, how to decide if something qualifies for consignment, how to enter items into the computer for consignment, how to ring out customers, and how to remove sensors and bag items, and overall customer service. This particular work experience taught Lisa a variety of skills that she was able to take to her next work experiences.
Lisa then went to Flowers by Angela to try her hand at preparing flowers.
After that, Lisa was off to Bluebird Trail Farm, where she had an amazing experience—from helping to feed the animals (pigs, alpacas, goats, donkeys, bunnies, horses, etc.), picking apples, raspberries, and vegetables, washing the vegetables, walking with Walter the dog, walking the trail, and countless other varieties of tasks.
Lisa is currently at Walgreens, where she is enjoying stocking shelves. She is also at Able 2 where she is shadowing their Day Hab Program.
Lisa has kept an open mind, is willing to try everything, and is having fun discovering her interest and all of her abilities!
