Spring Has Sprung!


And with the snow finally cleared out the farm looks worse than ever! It's all good... I'll just keep telling myself that! We are also trying to get a automatic waterer for the boys. The list of things we need RIGHT AWAY is scary but we'll manage. We need to rent, not buy, some farm implements to get the corn stubble gone, that field fertilized and pasture grass started. We'll need to buy the Drag, but rent the sprayer and seeder. I don't want a lot of implements laying around, taking up valuable room. The debris field is bad enough, and must be dealt with right away.

We visited the County Extension Office and Soil Conservation Office. It's all done on the computer now, topography and everything! Last weekend we measured point-to-point several different locations, trying to site the barn and fencing in the most advantageous ways for the long-term. And of course I want the boys as close to the house as possible. It's all good and I'm really looking forward to a busy, exciting Springtime!!
