Rung in the new year in the old barn last night. Carhartt was the dress code. 😁Luckily, the weather was nice and it was a balmy 45 degrees in the loft with the help of a few propane stoves. Thanks for all who stopped by to hang out!

Peterson Acres’ 1890’s barn is the location for the bar scene in this movie. Check it out!

Following a sudden loss, Cal Melbourne, a young father forced to grow up fast on Iowa's farmlands, must choose between salvaging his family's legacy or pursuing an unknown future for himself and his son.

Apparently, Barney is not happy with his living conditions here at Peterson Acres and is trying to appeal to the delivery people to take him. (FYI… Barney is a jet black long- haired kitty with very hard to see eyes.)😂🤣

Knee High had a scene that was shot over a 2-day period here at Peterson Acres! There will be a special showing of this heartwarming movie coming up. If you live in the Ballard area, you may see a few familiar faces (extras) in the bar scene as well as a scene filmed at Ballard Middle School.

Just one week left before our special event at The Fleur Cinema & Cafe. 🎉Be sure to join us for a screening followed by a Q+A, as well as one of The Fleur's signature coffees (or cocktails)! ☕🍸Get your tickets at the box office or here: https://fleurcinema.theatertoolkit.com/movies/FleurCinema/Knee-High/KN28125-048465000005/f7e408b15a8d440681fe7f8c8757c29d/ticket-selection

Here is your warning that if you come to Peterson Acres in an open air vehicle you may end up acquiring a cat or two. 🤣🤣

We have 8 sweet felines here at Peterson Acres. Pete named this one “Patches” and she is 2 1/2 years old. Patches was found by Lindy‘s mother-in-law, Brenda, wandering scared and half-starved along a gravel road near Stuart when she was only about five or six weeks old. I brought her to the farm and had to hand-feed her for a few weeks until she was weaned. She has proven to be a wonderful addition here, and is so kind and nurturing to every kitten she encounters. She has personal space issues and loves all humans. 🥹
