Flurry of activity
The farm is a busy place this time of the year, a flurry of activity. We are into harvesting our second crop of hay now and have just finished our peas and oats, bagging that and baling the second crop. I’m humbled and blessed that we have another abundant return. The moisture and heat together have made our alfalfa thick and lush in most spots.
