Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from the family at Honey Creek Farms!

Welcoming in 2012!  We are looking forward to a year of good times and good fun.

Had the grandkids this weekend and that is always an eventful time at the farm.





Congratulations to Honey Creek Que Osage who is going to his new owners, Carl and Patricia, in Longview, Texas.  Osage will spend some time with Clint Bailey, Lindale, Texas, in training to be a family riding horse.




We wish Osage and his new family many happy trails!

We are enjoying the fresh eggs from our Honey Creek Rhode Island Red chickens, thanks to Wayne Pope.  The eggs are delicious and we have them aplenty.


Beautiful weather for the beginning of this new year.  We have finally received blessed rain.  It is so good to see the tanks filling up and the creek running again.


Enjoyed Mom's visit and holidays with the family.  Did my Christmas shopping with local Texas artisans this year.  It was great to see the happy faces of family opening presents of doillies, scarves and blankets made by Texas Crafters Arleta McLaughlin and Janell Bucci.  Each one was a beautiful creation.  Thanks you ladies for your talented artworks.

The hogs are back again and we are working on getting them relocated!


Feral hogs are more than a nuisance here in Texas, they are a dangerous disturbance to the land and its people.  Three litters of piglets have been born here in just one month and nothing is more fiercely protective than a momma sow.  Hopefully, our folks at Texas Boars will be able to send the hogs on their way again soon.

We are so happy to see 2012 arrive and hope that this is a blessed year for you and yours.


All the best,

 


Carrie and Ben Woolverton
