IIOSCSMOKEYSC Barn: Updates, Events, And More!
Hey everyone, welcome back to the IIOSCSMOKEYSC Barn News! We're your go-to source for all things happening at the barn. Get ready for a fresh scoop on our latest happenings, exciting events, and maybe even a few surprises. Let's dive right in, shall we?
What's Been Happening at the Barn?
New Additions and Exciting Projects
First off, guys, we've got some fantastic news! We've welcomed a few new faces (or should we say, hoofs?) to the barn family! That's right, we've got some adorable new arrivals in the form of baby goats and a super friendly pony named Sparkle. They're already settling in and bringing a whole lot of joy to everyone. Come on down and say hello! We are also in the middle of a project to create an improved shelter for our animals during the winter, which will be equipped with heating systems. The old shelter was simply not equipped for the type of weather we experienced last year. We are extremely grateful for the support of the community, which helped us launch this project. It means the world to us to be able to provide the best living conditions for our animals. Speaking of improvements, we've also been working hard on some upgrades around the property. This includes making sure all the fences are secure, and that the grounds are safe and clean. We are always working to provide a safe and healthy environment for our animals and visitors. We've also planted a new herb garden, which is already starting to flourish. We plan to use the herbs to create natural remedies for the animals as well as for some human-friendly treats. We are passionate about offering a holistic approach to animal care, incorporating natural solutions whenever possible. And, for you tech-savvy folks, we've implemented a new system for online booking for events and tours. This is to make it super easy for you to plan your visit and make sure you don't miss out on any of the fun. So, whether you're a first-time visitor or a regular, be sure to check out our website for all the details. It's user-friendly and packed with information!
We are committed to making the IIOSCSMOKEYSC Barn a place of fun, learning, and connection, and these improvements are just the beginning. We always have something exciting brewing, so keep checking back for more updates!
Animal Spotlight: Meet Our Stars
This week, we're putting the spotlight on our senior horse, Champion. Champion has been with us for over 15 years, and he's seen it all! He's a gentle giant with a heart of gold, who's always up for a good scratch and some extra treats. Champion has become a mentor to some of our younger horses. He's patient, understanding, and always willing to lend a hoof to those who need it. He loves to go on trail rides and has become a great friend to both staff and visitors alike. Champion loves a good apple and carrot snack. We are lucky to have him in the family. We hope you'll take the time to say hello and give him some love when you visit. We are also excited to introduce you to our newest goat, Nibbles, whoβs quickly becoming a crowd favorite! Nibbles is a playful and mischievous kid who is always up to something. He loves to explore the grounds, and heβs constantly finding new ways to get into a little bit of trouble (but it's all in good fun!). Nibbles is currently training to become an agility goat. He's already shown great potential, and we canβt wait to see what he can achieve. He's also been seen making friends with the other baby animals. They love to follow him around. They've also been seen sharing snacks together. Come down to meet the stars!

Volunteer Spotlight
We want to give a huge shout-out to our amazing volunteers! We would not be able to do what we do without their support. This week, we're highlighting Sarah, who has been volunteering her time at the barn for the past year. Sarah has been a rockstar helping with everything from cleaning stalls to leading pony rides. She's always got a smile on her face and a helping hand ready. Sarah has become a true asset to our team, and we're incredibly grateful for her dedication and passion.

Barn Tips & Tricks
Animal-Friendly Gardening
Did you know you can create a beautiful and safe garden for both you and the animals? Well, you can. Here are some tips on how to create an animal-friendly garden. Avoid using pesticides. These can be harmful to animals if ingested. Plant animal-safe plants such as catnip, clover, and sunflowers. Make sure the plants are in an area that the animals can access. Provide plenty of water. Animals need access to fresh water. Create designated areas. This will help protect the plants and animals.
Safe Treats and Snacks
Always make sure to provide safe treats and snacks. Before feeding any treats, make sure they are safe for the animal. Fruits like apples and carrots are safe treats. But, donβt give any fruit pits or seeds. Be mindful of food allergies. Remember, moderation is key.
