Well, it’s been awhile. I’ve been busy helping some farmers with harvest.

​

We kicked off harvest in Iowa, working there for two weeks in mid October.

​

​

I got back home late October and finished off the harvest season with a farm here in Wisconsin.

Hope you all are having a fantastic 4th of July weekend! This summer has been great here so far. We even got some much-needed rain last weekend.

We were able to finish all the paneling on the sheep fence this month and finish all of the electric.

​

​​

And I’m very excited to have the baby chicks finally arrive on farm, middle of last week!

They will stay in the brooder until they are old enough to go out on pasture in about 3 weeks.

​

This month I did an experiment on our extra pasture that turned out really great!

I made my first crop of hay…

using my grandpa’s old rake that he converted from the original horse pulled style to be able to be pulled by a tractor.

We got about 20 small square bales off of about 2 acres of pasture. We use hay for bedding for my parents’ layers, and I’d like to switch over to using it for my broiler chicks as well when they are in the brooder.
