Compost Time
Lately we have been working our compost.
We have added leaves and winter bedding to the kitchen refuse from Nashville's only Green Certified restaurant. We have partnered with tayst since 2009. Saving the landfill from huge quantities of vegetable matter. We are out in Wilson County making good dirt!

Wrong Side of the Fence
Sometimes you find your sense of adventure has gotten you on the wrong side of the fence.
Good thing there is always a sister somewhere to help you get back to the right side.

Hogging the Trough
After we finished freshining up the water trough, this little piggy found a perfect spot for what he thought would be a relaxing soak. His pals waited impatiently for their spin through the water.

Hester the Inspector
She is the first one to great me in the morning and the tester of the food.
Quality control is the name of her game. This inspector must eat from every feeder first!

Spa day
A beautiful eighty degree day sends Mia and Nosey Rosey to the cool waters in the old abandoned pond. Mud baths all around! What a luxury!

Here are the girls!
They gather around for their daily buffet of fruits and vegetables.
Wedge Oak Farm partners with a local grocery to reduce the grocery's impact on the land fill. Our flocks of poultry, passels of pigs and even our bovine herd enjoys the daily delights of produce!
Did you know that ducks love green peppers and pigs like cilantro?

Chicks in the Brooder
Our 8 breeds of chicks are starting to "feather out" but still loving the heat under the brooder!
The Turken, up front (aka Transylvanian Naked Neck), especially likes the warm glow on her neck.
Maybe a scarf is in order!

Fresh on the farm!
Wedge Oak Farm got our newest pullet chicks last week and quickly shared the water and chick starter feed with them. Each one gets a drink upon arrival and put under the brooder to warm up. They prefer 90-95 degrees for the first week.
In no time they will have their feathers and be ready for the pasture - these will be our new laying hens!

Big Daddy Finds New Friends
Moved Big Daddy into new area. He was lonely as the only boy on the

Single Male - lonely and looking for company...
Likes fresh fruit, back scratches, and a night under the stars.
Looking for companions to share the feed bin and wander the limestone basin.
