Come to the farm Wednesday-Saturday at 10 a.m., and 1 p.m., when Millie, our two-month-old Scottish Highlander calf, gets her bottle.

Miles Smith Farm, 56 Whitehouse Rd. Loudon, NH 03307, 603 783 5159.

After you feed her, Millie would love you to donate to the non-profit Learning Networks Foundation: "Compassion for Critters" is our mission.
