Bittersweet Acres boarders and friends of the Higginbothams enjoyed a bonfire on Sunday night. The weather
was perfect and the kids enjoyed the haystack, buckets of bubbles, glow sticks and sparkers. The adults relaxed with the bonfire and s’mores. Special thanks to those who started the bonfire, drove the tractor rides back and forth to the front of the farm and helped with set up and clean up. Fun had by all!!

Bittersweet Acres began the summer project of baling hay. Patrick is very excited about the quality of hay again this year and it appears that we may have even more than last year. Here are some pictures of the first baling of hay. Special thanks to Pa Rudy and Adam Kahmann!!

The Higginbotham kids have begun their horse riding journey. The three kids are taking lessons with a former boarder, Katie Robison Alderman (For those at the barn, she used to have Ralph here). Special thanks to Megan Howard for allowing us to use her mare, Penny. She is doing AWESOME, of course. The kids are very excited!!

Bittersweet Acres was happy to host extension agents from the four regions of the U.S. as fellows with the USDA Sustainable Ag Research and Education Program and some representatives from the University of Kentucky for a farm visit this morning. We gave a presentation on what we do boarding horses and growing hay at Bittersweet Acres as an example of the horse industry here in Kentucky outside the racing industry. We would like to thank Lee Meyer and Sarah Lovett from the UK College of Agriculture for the invitation to be a part of the program. Below are some pictures from the visit.
