The ride to the back farms is they do not put screens around the trailer so the entire thing is full of dust your face your hair your mouth you’re eaten dirt. They could have a much better way to take you to the back farms.
MoreIt was very disappointing. Little more than a hike through dusty trails to see a couple pigs, a few chickens, and some skinny horses. The buildings were in bad condition and not well curated other than the church, bank, and print shop. I literally have more to see on my hobby farm.
MoreVery nice farm. Dusty tractor ride to 1700, 1800 and 1900 sections showing their way of life. Loved the people dressed in costume.
MorePlease properly install your landscape netting. You are putting valuable wildlife at risk. Also, trying to punish someone who is trying to save those birds is gross behavior. Do better, quit avoiding the issue and actually do what your supposed to.
Moreyou guys need to clean up your property . Geese are federally protected and you allow people to destroy your property with netting and you dont care. CLEAN UP YOUR PROPERTY.
