Sheep (and porcupines) may safely graze at Wachusett Meadow. Happy Thanksgiving from Central Massachusetts!
At this time of year, the sheep at Wachusett Meadow wander freely around the Sanctuary. The short video included lends a sense of the space they may graze.
There are many early indicators of a seasonal shift from Winter to Spring at Wachusett Meadow Farm in New England — an increase in snowshoe travel, strong shadows and patterns, running streams, melting snow patches on stone walls, diminishing icicles, sheep wool thick enough for shearing and diverse creatures sunbathing and feeding.
