Meet Our Cheeky Gaggle of Geese at the Farm
Meet our four cheeky geese who share the duck pond at the farm! We’ve had geese here since 2017, and they’ve certainly made themselves at home. Our gaggle consists of three females and one proud male, who takes his job as protector very seriously.
During nesting season, the females stay busy laying eggs while the male keeps a close watch, making sure his girls are safe. While they can be a bit cheeky—especially if you get too close to their nesting spot—they are also very intelligent and curious birds.
Where Can You See Them? 🏡
🔎 Duck Pond & Surrounding Area – Our geese spend their days paddling around the duck pond, splashing in the water, and honking loudly to announce their presence! They also love grazing on grass nearby and keeping an eye on all the farm activities.
