Hello there! Well we've had a busy few days since our last post so there's plenty to tell you about in this one!
 At last the sun has shone on Jolly Goose HQ and the beetroot is loving it - as are we! The only problem is the gastropod invasion we've endured recently......luckily we've got an army of toads and frogs in the garden to fend them off our lovely veg! We're counting on you Captain Croak!

The beautiful Cilla has been sunning herself this week with the other piggies. Look at her peering over the fence - she's probably planning an escape so she can seek and destroy the beetroot - naughty Cilla pig! We're looking for a handsome husband for Cilla at the moment so she can have some lovely littlies so if anyone knows a brooding boar please get in touch - though Cilla is quite the catch so only the best please. Mr Darcy Pig - we know you're out there!

In honour of Cilla and her chums, I donned my apron and baked some of these piggy biscuits.....though with all the hype surrounding the Olympics a few turned out as Olympigs! The Olympigs went down a storm on Twitter (we're super technical .....!) and ITV and Channel 4 Food retweeted the pigture (too far?). It's only a matter of time until Cilla runs for Primeminister at this rate.....
Pigs aside, the sheep are having a fantastic time out in the fields. This year's lambs are just about up to weight, so if you fancy tucking in to a classic roast lamb or maybe spicing the barbie up with some delicious lamb joints, just email or phone us (details are on the right hand side)

Talking of the hard sell, (sorry!) we have finally erected Miranda The Marketing Sheep! She's patriotic in red, white and blue so hopefully she'll send Team GB some luck and sell some sausages! If you're here because of Miranda, thank you! We hope you enjoy hearing about our little adventures around the farm!

Next week - Geese, Sausages and Harvest update!!!
