Meet Clover, Pennsbury’s Mother Goose. Clover’

Meet Clover, Pennsbury’s Mother Goose. Clover’s white feathers are the clear giveaway in a gaggle of gray-feathered birds. Clover is a 10-year-old Embden goose, a large breed commonly used for meat. She is the boss who keeps the other ladies in check when they are causing trouble. Some might call our geese nosey, but we like to describe them as inquisitive. They don’t want to be left out of the action!⁠
⁠
Unfortunately, Clover had a medical emergency that required life-saving surgery. The procedure was successful, but she now requires specialty medication to treat her condition. While we are cautiously optimistic, Clover may need to undergo further procedures in the future. With your generosity we will be able to give Clover the medical care she needs. ⁠

Remembering, Sophia⁠
⁠
Rest in peace Sophia, the retired Matriarch of Pennsbury Manor. At 15-year-old, she was the most senior member of our flock. This distinguished lady put in her time as leader of the flock and has recently passed on. She was a purebred Lincoln Long-wool, considered to be the most desirable breed for wool textiles. One look at her long locks and rich silver coloring, and it was clear Sophia was meant for the runway. ⁠

We will miss you, Sophia.

Meet Roger, the stoic leader. Roger is a bit of a contradiction. He is introverted while his brother Michael is extroverted. While Michael basks in the spotlight when he’s around people, Roger prefers to stay in the background. Despite his shy personality, Roger is the leader of the oxen team. This means that when the oxen are yoked, he listens out for directions and makes the turns. ⁠
⁠
We monitor Roger’s diet to prevent them from getting too heavy for their achy joints. While we like to keep Michael and Roger on the lighter side, between the two of them they consume roughly 15,000 pounds of hay each year! Your donation will go a long way to giving Roger a long, happy life. ⁠
