LIFE AT LONDON SPRINGS

MORE THAN ONE KIND OF ANIMAL CALLS THIS PLACE HOME.

Our farm is home to a growing collection of livestock, poultry, and more than a few characters. Some are here as part of our developing farm operation. Others have simply become part of the family.

THE WHO’S WHO OF
COWDRY OF LONDON’S EMUS

Meet the birds that keep the farm crazy.

Curious, social, and full of personality, our emus have become a memorable part of life at London Springs. Each has a story of their own — including one we haven't met yet.

Mumu the emu at Cowdry of London Farms

Mumu

THE ORIGINAL CHARACTER

Mumu has been part of life at London Springs for years. Friendly, curious, and never far from whatever the family is doing, Mumu has become one of the farm's biggest personalities.

For a long time we weren't certain whether Mumu was male or female. Then came the unmistakable deep booming call of a female emu. Mystery apparently solved.

LuLu the emu at Cowdry of London Farms

LuLu

THE GOOSE

LuLu is our DNA-confirmed female emu—but apparently nobody told LuLu.

Raised with geese, she seems to have concluded that she is simply a very tall member of the flock. She still identifies with her goose family and brings her own particular interpretation of what it means to be an emu at London Springs.

SEARCH UNDERWAY

MR. WHOWHO

THE MYSTERY EMU

With Mumu and LuLu both apparently ladies, the family has begun searching for the right gentleman to join London Springs.

For now, he is known only as Mr. Whowho.

Who is he? Where is he? We don't know yet.

But the kids are looking.

HOW WE FARM

LAND. ANIMALS. FAMILY.

We are building London Springs Farm one season at a time. Our goal is simple: care well for the animals, improve the land, learn what works, and leave the property better than we found it.

PASTURE & LAND

Good animal care begins with good ground.

ANIMAL CARE

Daily care, observation, good food, shelter, and appropriate veterinary care matter.

FAMILY PARTICIPATION

The farm is something our family builds and learns from together.
