The world may be in turmoil but life keeps going on a farm.

Home Farm Gardens on Bowen has had added some extremely cute arrivals to its flock.

Thirteen new lambs had arrived as of last Friday.

Rosie Montgomery of Home Farm Gardens says that there are two sets of triplets and two sets of twins and three singles.

The ewe Beauty birthed the first lamb of the season, Jamie, at 14 lb.
