Upcoming Class: Basic Goat Husbandry

Upcoming Class: Basic Goat Husbandry

Many, many people express interest in learning more about goat care, something we view as an important responsibility. We are now excited to offer a day-long workshop to share our knowledge. Our March 30 Basic Goat Husbandry Workshop session filled up, so we've now opened a second date, on April 6, from 11am to 6pm. Each workshop is limited to 12 participants. To register for the workshop, please use the Paypal link below (which enables credit card processing, even if you don't have a paypal account). Cost for each participant is $110.
We are one of two goat dairies in North Carolina which bear the Animal Welfare Approved third party certification. As of right now, we have 150 goats on our farm; we expect approximately 150 kids to be born on-farm this spring. Some will be born prior to the start of this workshop, which will enable us to cover a broader range of topics. Depending on the whim of our does, who do seem to have a sense of theater, perhaps we'll see a live birth during the workshop. We are entirely pasture-based. If it's pouring rain that day, we'll reschedule for the same day/time the following week. If it is just sprinkling, the show will go on. Bring a lunch—it's a long day! We'll have handouts for you to take home, but also bring a notebook. We're covering a lot of information in a short period of time.

• assessing your goatkeeping goals
• preparing for your goat: shelter, fencing, considering other animals
• finding and selecting your goats
• essential and handy equipment and where to find it or how to make it
• nutritional requirements and supplements
• vaccinations, parasite control, and discussion of common health issues

Farm Tours

Join CFSA Down on the Farm!

CFSA’s farm tours were created to better connect farmers and consumers. Visitors are able to see the reality of what goes on at a sustainable small farm. How do farm families balance their busy lives? How do they grow food in harmony with nature? How do they market their products and make it financially?

We are especially happy that lots of children come on the tours. Today so many children have read story books about farms and farm animals, but have never actually seen a farm. By touring, children learn where their food comes from and what a real farm is.

Horizons Memorial (Play)

Tickets are now on sale for the premiere of Horizons Memorial, a new play written by award-winning playwright Samm-Art Williams. The opening night premiere performance is March 22 at the Arts Council Theater. Additional performances are on March 23 - 24. The play is presented by the North Carolina Black Repertory Company (NCBRC), and is being directed by Broadway veteran Mabel Robinson. Robinson, a Tony Award nominee and Broadway veteran, is an internationally known actress, choreographer and director.

The play focuses on the history of the property in Northern Forsyth Country that presently houses the Horizons Residential Care Center for people with severe physical and developmental disabilities. The site was originally an orphanage for African American children that opened in the early 1900’s, and was active until 1972, when Horizons assumed control of the property.

The Board of Directors for Horizons and the North Carolina Black Repertory commissioned Williams to write this play to commemorate Horizons' 40th Anniversary. Williams is originally from Burgaw, N.C., and has a long resume featuring acting roles and producing TV shows and Broadway plays.

“There is tremendous historical significance of the property, not only to the African American community, but the entire community,” said David Adams, Horizons’ Chief Executive Officer. “The site was originally named the Memorial Industrial School, but it was also known as the Colored Baptist Orphanage. Several generations of children were raised and educated on the site until 1972, when it closed and the property was transferred to Horizons.”

The play highlights the historical significance of the property through the eyes of the children who lived there as orphans and through the eyes of employees who work there now caring for children who have little understanding of their surroundings.

This weekend's project is putting the metal roof on our "farmers market" shed. Will be glad to check it off of our to do list! We'll be using the shed for the first time at shed at the end of March, when we host the 2013 Piedmont Farm School and talk with the participants about being a small scale dairy.  A little later in the Spring, Mother Holtz Farm will be joining us on Sunday afternoons with their local fresh produce.  We already offer a selection of their jams and jellies in our farm store daily.

 

 

Our first batch of fresh goat milk feta cheese (shown in the brine above) was packaged up Saturday morning and placed in the cooler of the Farm Store.  It's been a busy week in the Farm Store, with us adding the fresh goat milk chevres and goat milk feta, in addition to our raw milk aged cheeses.

 

 

Our farm store is open from 1 until 6 today (9 until 6 Monday through Saturday). We have lots of grass fed and pasture raised meats, raw milk aged goat cheese, fresh chevre and feta along with local jams, jellies, honey, goats milk lotions, goat collectibles and more. With the "Spring" weather, it's a great time to visit Hanging Rock State Park while you are in the area too!

Food Safety Training for Farmers’ Market Vendors

Originally written by Debbie Roos

N.C. Good Farmers’ Market Practices is a new NC Cooperative Extension program developed to educate farmers’ market managers and vendors about measures to minimize food safety risks. The training focuses on Good Farmers’ Market Practices (GFMPs). On Monday, March 25, 2013, Chatham County Family and Consumer Science Extension Agent Phyllis Smith, M.Ed., RD, LDN, will conduct training for farmers’ market managers and vendors who will be responsible for implementing the practices that will help minimize risks when it comes to the safety of products sold and practices at farmers’ markets. The program will be held at the Chatham County Agriculture Building Auditorium in Pittsboro (65 East Chatham St. Pittsboro, NC 27312)from 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm. The program is FREE.

The presentation will provide information to enhance the safety of products sold and practices at farmers’ markets across North Carolina. These efforts are being carried out to protect the farmers’ market sector by increasing good food safety practices and reducing the risk of food-borne illness outbreaks. Considering the increasing popularity of markets, a focus on safety of food products sold protects farmers, patrons, and local economies. Market managers and vendors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to learn more from this food safety at farmers’ market presentation.

Although there isn’t a charge for the program, pre-registration is requested. Pre-register for the Good Farmers’ Market Practices training by emailing extension.programs@chathamnc.org (put “GFMP workshop” in the subject line) or by calling 919-542-8202.

Forsyth Creek Week

Participate in Forsyth Creek Week March 16-23

The first-ever Forsyth Creek Week, coming March 16 – 23, will offer a full week of fun, educational and hands-on activities for all ages and interests, including events that will appeal to bird watchers, anglers, film buffs, book readers, shutterbugs, and do-it-yourselfers.
All these activities and more, says Creek Week organizer Roseann L’Esperance, are designed to give Forsyth County residents the opportunity to connect with – and appreciate – our local waterways. “It’s a good opportunity to focus on the water in our community, what we like about it and what we can do to help it,” said L’Esperance, who is the senior community educator for Winston-Salem’s Stormwater/Erosion Control Department.
Forsyth Creek Week is presented by North State Environmental and is being organized by a coalition of 15 local government and non-profit agencies. Activities during Creek Week include:

• “Creek crawls” – guided tours to learn the signs of a healthy creek by looking at creek banks and aquatic life.
• Fishing derbies, one for kids at Kernersville’s Century Park Lake and one for adults at Salem Lake.
• Demonstrations of the fast-growing sport of kayak fishing, and a fly-fishing workshop on casting and fly-tying.
• Workshops on how to make a garden rain barrel or repair an eroding backyard stream.
• Films and a book discussion to give the big picture of the importance of water in our lives.
• Children’s activities, including water-themed story times at libraries and a “Creek Week Craft Hour.”
• The Creek Week Photo Contest for photos taken at Creek Week events, with gift cards for daily and grand prize winners.

Forsyth Creek Week also includes extended hours at the 3RC Envirostation for accepting household hazardous waste, Operation Medicine Drop to prevent prescription drugs from getting into our water supplies, and the Great American Clean-up, a service opportunity to prevent litter from washing into local creeks and streams.
Complete information about all Creek Week events is available at www.ForsythCreekWeek.org.
