Sunset Over Soybeans

This photo was taken last Sunday night at a field down the road from the farm. The rain has continued to fall, albeit at rapid rates, and crops and Christmas trees are looking much happier.

It'd been a while since we'd seen a sunset like that, with light echoing off clouds.

And it was a delight to see one once again.

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

We are counting down to the Indiana State Fair! The lambs have begun their halter training, and Jeff is preparing our new trailer for sheep transport. This picture is from last year’s State Fair when a friend stopped by to visit Elrond!

Farm Shop

Our garden wool is being used by the members of the Parke County Community Garden to keep their plants hydrated and protected from pests. I visited the garden on Thursday to see how the asparagus was faring.

We have garden wool available in 10-lb bags for $20 to give your plants a mid-season boost.
