Harvest

Happy First Weekend of Autumn!

Harvest time is here. Although we don't raise grain, our animals eat the grain supplied by our neighbors.

This photo was taken at a soybean field down the road from us. We were driving home Tuesday night after working in the barn, and as we came around the curve, the combine started down the row in front of the setting sun. Dust furled from the back of the machine.

There's a long dry stretch coming up, which means a big harvest window.

Thanks for Reading!

And I hope you feel refreshed and rejuvenated for the week ahead with this moment preserved in picture and prose. Consider:

This Week on the Farm

Saturday, our batteries were recharged by attending the Hoosier Sheep Symposium at Franklin College. This annual meeting featured speakers on animal health and solar grazing. We connected with fellow sheep enthusiasts and enjoyed a delicious meal featuring lamb.

Now, we're ready to tackle the week!
