Barnyard Babies


As the strawberries are growing riper and the days are growing hotter, the barn is experiencing excitement. Patterson Farm celebrated their first set of triplets a few days ago. The triplets were preceded and succeeded by many goats, and a few more babies are expected. Julie Poteat, an employee of Patterson Farm, has been keeping her eye on the mothers and babies. "They love sitting in the feed bowl," she said about the new goats.


The Patterson Farm employees are surprised by the rapid birthing of the goats. For a few days, beginning in the middle of last week, it seemed like the farm was going to double in size, especially with the arrival of the triplets. The farm hopes that visitors enjoy watching the newborns prance around and hearing them bleat to each other as much as they do.


Celebrate this Memorial Day weekend by feeding the newborn goats in the Patterson Farm barn. The cow train will be running, the playground will be open, and the ice cream shop will be ready to scoop waffle cones. Bring the entire family to Patterson Farm on this beautiful weekend!
