Barn & Soul by Dalby Farm
Welcome to Barn & Soul, a podcast brought to you by Dalby Farm - where we will explore the heart of "pet farm" life, learn about critically populated (if not outright) endangered farm breeds, and highlight the deep connections between animals and humans which we strive to encourage and preserve.
The farm has been Kendall's (your host) family since 1861 but it wasn't always a sanctuary for endangered farm breeds or an educational venue for the community. This podcast will touch upon aspects of the farms history, offer insight and advice as it pertains to owning farm animals as pets- and arguably most importantly - share vital information about these endangered farm breeds; what their roles are in our past AND why they're needed in our future.
New Episodes: Wednesdays at 9PM EST

Barn & Soul Podcast: Episode 19- Discussing the History of Scituate, MA: From "Cold Brook" to Coastal Town
Welcome to Barn & Soul, where farming meets heart, history, and a mission to preserve the past for a more sustainable future.
In this episode, we take you on a reflective journey through the history of our hometown- Scituate, Massachusetts - the place Dalby Farm has called home since the 1860s.
From its Wampanoag roots and Revolutionary War resilience to lighthouse legends, family farms, and the challenges of modern development, this coastal town holds nearly 400 years of stories.
Join Kendall as we explore the soul of Scituate: its people, its land, and how the tension between preservation and progress continues to shape life today.
🐑 Featuring insights on Dalby Farm’s origin and why green spaces- and rare breeds- matter more than ever.
☀️ Grab a warm drink and take a walk back in time with us.
