The Cat Who Cried "FOOD!" 🙀🐈

Foggy Oak Fairy Tales | Farm Stories & Other Kids... ·

2026/08/26

This month’s story comes from my daughter Rory. It is a true farm tale about our cat Bingley who has been running a "Boy Who Cried Wolf" scam on us for months. Unlike in the classic fairy tale, we have not abandoned Bingley to his fate, but he has fully earned a new nickname of "The Cat Who Cried Food".

One Lucky Duckling 🐣🦆🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤

Foggy Oak Fairy Tales | Farm Stories & Other Kids... ·

2026/06/24

It's the start of summer here and this month I am bringing you a story that happened actually just a couple of weeks ago on the farm. Last month's episode focused on some of the odd nests and places we have found mamas and their babies on the farm, and coincidentally enough, this spring brought us yet another one of those situations. It is a surprising tale involving one very lucky and perhaps magical duckling that appeared out of nowhere a few weeks ago 👀👀👀... If you like our show, please

Odd Nests 🪺🐣🐓

2026/05/27

Every spring we seem to have a series of incredibly odd location choices for nests among our chickens and ducks. This month, I thought it would be fun to share some of the strange and silly places hens in our flock have decided to make their nests.

The Trapped Tractor 🚜🌊🌱

Foggy Oak Fairy Tales | Farm Stories & Other Kids... ·

2026/04/29

It’s spring here on Foggy Oak Farm, and in addition to baby animals and nicer weather that also means it's the time of year when things start growing again and mowing season begins. This month’s episode is about one of those parts of farm life that happens every so often – getting a tractor stuck, and the multi-step, often ridiculous process of attempting to rescue it.

It's spring here on the farm and for those of you who've been listening for a while you know that in addition to the typical explosion of chicks at this time of year that also means it is fox season. This month’s episode is about our efforts to outsmart our resident fox…most recently by putting our livestock guardian dog Rose to work guarding the chickens.

This month’s episode is all about fiber (no, not the kind you eat)! We talk about the process of creating yarn from shearing sheep and retell two fantastic Greek myths related to threads and fiber: a tale about the great craftsman Daedalus and the story of Arachne - aka the origin of spiders!

To Bell the Cat (or The Mice in Council) 🐁🔔😾

2026/01/28

Have you heard the expression "to bell the cat"? This month we tell the fable that gives us this expression for attempting an impossible task, and consider what lessons it might be able to teach us. We cover (at a kid friendly level) the collective action problem and the tragedy of the commons as some of the lessons from this tale.

The Seven Ravens 🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛👧

Foggy Oak Fairy Tales | Farm Stories & Other Kids... ·

2025/11/19

For this month’s episode, we have an adaptation of a classic, but less well known, fairy tale called “The Seven Ravens”. A version can be found in Grimm’s Fairy Tales, but there are many variants from across the world. Seven brothers are transformed into ravens when their father curses them for laziness, and their youngest sister sets off on a quest to find and rescue them. It offers a moral to “be careful what you wish for” (a moral we often explore on the podcast), but it also speaks ...

The Great Pumpkin Flood 🌊🎃🎃🎃(Foggy Oak Scary Tales)

Foggy Oak Fairy Tales | Farm Stories & Other Kids... ·

2025/10/15

This episode of Foggy Oak Scary Tales is not scary in a spooky sense, but is definitely scary if you are a pumpkin farmer! It is the true story of a rainstorm that hit at exactly the wrong time and washed all the pumpkins away from the neighboring farm..and onto everything downstream…including our farm. Join me to learn about that – hopefully – once in a lifetime flood. Thanks as always to sister-in-law extraordinaire Lee Knight for the fabulous intro and outro theme music during spooky...

Why the Sea is Salt 🌊🧂

Foggy Oak Fairy Tales | Farm Stories & Other Kids... ·

2025/07/16

Hi friends! This month’s episode is an adaptation of a fairy tale found in several cultures called “Why the Sea is Salt”. In this adaptation, a young woman trades for a magic quern (or hand mill) that can produce anything she requests. It’s a story where sharing and selflessness are rewarded and greed and selfishness reap what they have sown.

And BOY were they ornery during their bid for free reign of the farmyard. Join us for a tale of hilarity and woe (at least if you're me, fixing a broken fence in 95 degree weather while trying to catch what felt like an army of loose farm animals).
