There’s cute animals, and then there’s cute baby animals. The Farm at Doe Run recently welcomed its first Normandy calf, so don’t be surprised to see more adorable photos like this one pop up every now and then. The dairy farm also grows and sells vegetables, so its Instagram features beautiful produce from its greenhouse.
