It was a relatively warm weekend, but there was still enough snow to plant, so I got a lot done. The field is now half planted - if I really have to, I can get the rest done in 2 weekends. (more...)
It was a stormy weekend at the farm – there wasn't enough snow to plant until Monday, when it snowed hard most of the day. I did get a couple of the wetland areas planted before the snow. (more...)

It's been a quiet few weeks at the farm. Last weekend I worked on seeding the new prairie. (more...)

Brad got 11 deer last week! We're so pleased, and so it he. 6 does and 5 bucks - one really nice buck that he's very pleased with - not so many points, but big, wide antlers. That should help keep our deer population down a little this year. (more...)
We had our first snow of the season this weekend.
It snowed on Friday night and Saturday, so we drove down through it - the roads near the farm hadn’t been plowed, and it was slow going. (more...)
