🐦 Biggest thank you to Lisa Gabbard with @zerovkentucky for coming to the shelter and teaching us about bird habitats!

🍠 Lots of sweet potatoes, tomatoes, pumpkins, and peppers have been harvested!

Favorite meals lately have been red beans and rice with tomatoes and peppers from the farm, and sausage and black bean soup with sweet potatoes!

Looking forward to more autumn harvests and healing time on the farm! 🍂
