March 7, 2009 Dansk tekst til venstre English text on the right Dagens baghave: Backyard of the Day: Centennial Farm, Orange County Fairgrounds, Costa Mesa, Orange County, California The Centennial Farm is part of the Orange County Fairgrounds, which are located at 88 Fair Drive in Costa Mesa, Orange County, California   Vi camperede på parkeringspladsen ved Orange County Fair i dag og tilbragte dagen på Centennial Farm, hvor der er i forårets anledning er dyrebørn under ankomst. We day camped in the parking lot of the Orange County Fair today, and spent the day at Centennial Farm, where spring has sprung, and they've got animal babies arriving.       Ung kvie ~ Young heifer     Centennial Farm blev startet i 1989, så børn kunne lære om landbrug på nært hold. Her er både dyrebrug og køkkenhaver i lange baner, og avlen går til at føde de ubemidlede. Centennial Farm was started in 1989, so children could learn agriculture up close. They keep animals here, as well as cultivating acres of crops, which are then used to feed the needy.     April elskede dette British Toggenburg gedekid, som er knap tre uger gammelt, og stadig ikke for godt gående. April loved this British Toggenburg baby goat, who was under three weeks old and still had a tottering walk.   "Moaaaar, vent på mig...!" "Mo-o-o-o-om, wait for me...!"   "Nej, nu er det nok med det gå-halløj. Jeg gi'r op." "Oh, enough of that walking stuff. I give up."

Jordbær ~ Strawberries       Llama     En usædvanligt stumpet April ~ An unusually short Spud     Rosenkål ~ Brussels sprout     Grislingerne er født den 16. februar. The piglets were born February 16.

Overho'det ikke til at stå for ~ Completely and utterly adorable   Så' det bare om at møve sig... ~ Hey, there's an opening, I'm going in...             Pitanga-frugt ~ Eugenia uniflora ~ Surinam cherry       Hende her var højgravid, og havde ikke energi til meget andet end at vente på nedkomsten. This ewe was way pregnant with energy for little other than laying around waiting for the blessed event.

Angora-geden er akkurat lige så blød og vamset, som han ser ud til at være. The angora goat is just as cuddly soft as you would think to look at him.
