Maria marching with hay, followed by her much-loved animals, has become an iconic photo from Bedlam Farm. I love these photos; everyone is different yet the same. She’s out caring for the gardens right now; Zinnia and Zip keep her company. This is our idea of a day off. No Farmers Market today.

The White Hen seems stable. She will let go any day, but she is a tough bird and wants to live. She’s got a beautiful, safe, and well-stocked home in the barn and seems very happy there.

Zip Postcard: This is my favorite Zip photo. I’d love to give them out for free, but they are expensive to print. Anyone who donates any amount through the blog support program will get one, and so will people who send money via Paypal, jon@bedlamfarm.com or Venmo, Jon Katz@Jon-Katz-13 or by mail, Jon Katz, Blog Support, P.O. Box 205, Cambridge, New York, 12816. Thanks, they are being printed now. Thanks for your support.
