The cows are loving the hairy vetch (purple flowers) from last fall’s cover crop mix dad seeded in this pasture!

If you are looking for something to do today, check out the Clay City festivities for the pottery festival, and don’t forget to stop by the farm (the cows are right along the road today). Plus, Tracy from McHenry Farms will have her krauts and kombuchas here as well!

And there you have it! Calving season 2026 is officially over with Copper’s new bull calf. Decided to keep a few more calves than I originally intended this spring because it seems like growing the herd for the grassfed beef demand is probably wise.

On to the next thing now! Won’t be long till the bulls join the cows to start the process all over again 🐂

Tomorrow we’ll be around the barn and store from 9-11 am. If the cows allow us, we might take it a little easier tomorrow afternoon for a while 😎.

So if you need farm goodies, come in the morning. If you absolutely can’t, send us a message and we can meet you there later.

Livestock don’t observe holidays, but we’ll see if we can sweet-talk them into giving us a couple hours or something 😉

And then there was one…

Sierra snuck one in on us this morning…she has a pretty small udder for her first time calving, and she didn’t really even look that close yesterday (though I was hoping she’d go before the end of May!).

Thankfully the last first-calf heifer calved on her own with no assistance!

And now we wait for Copper…who is getting close. We *think* she be the last one 😉.

🌅Love me some sunrises and sunsets…and when you can add cows in the mix, all the better!

🌻When moving the chickens this week, I came across a VERY healthy dandelion plant. Check out the size of that leaf! (sorry, no dandelion emoji)

🍇 Mulberry season is about to kick off, as the early ones are ripening in a hurry! This tree caught my attention this afternoon…positively loaded with berries up the whole branch! If you’re adventurous and want to harvest some yourself, give me a heads-up and I’ll point you towards a plethora of options on the farm 😉 (also no mulberry emojis 😬).
