Happy Fun Fact Friday! 🥳

Since we are sooo close to being done planting corn todays fun fact is all about how we plant our corn!!🌽🌽

➡️ A couple years we decided to switch to no-till planting for several reason but the biggest being to help with erosion!

➡️ With no-till planting it’s pretty simple, we don’t plow the fields up each spring which helps preserve the organic matter & reduces soil compaction!

➡️ a HUGE benefit this year has been with our fuel consumption!!

➡️ Since switching to no-till we have seen an increase in our soil health and in our crop yields!

➡️ There are so many different ways both new & old that people are farming and none that are right or wrong, just different strokes for different folks!!

& as you can see we already have some corn popping up! we hope you all have a GREAT weekend!!☀️🌽🚜

Meet Dolly & Reba!🤍🖤
I had the sweetest surprise this morning when I got here to see these precious little twins!😍

We don’t have twins very often, let alone heifer twins so it’s always a treat & these two are as sassy and cute as can be!😍

Hey I’m Hannah!🙋🏼‍♀️ I’m the one behind all the posts & stories and Hannah’s Pumpkins! I am the 4th generation on our farm and work with my dad & other employees here on our farm and love sharing what we’re up to around here & about the dairy industry!

Here’s some fun facts about me:

➡️ I bring my dog Oakley with me everyday! Him & Griff love greeting everyone that comes to the farm and helping people pick out their pumpkins!🎃

➡️ I came back to the farm last year after working in an office for 4 1/2 years & I love being able to work with the calves & just being outside!!☀️

➡️ I was the 2012-2013 Tompkins County Dairy Princess and they told me once a princess always a princess & I hold onto that fact & is a huge reason I love sharing about our farm so much!!

✨ If you have any questions about our farm, the dairy industry or just want to see more of something shoot me a message, I’d love to chat with ya!!😎

✨ As always, thanks for following along and supporting local farms!!🚜🐮🌽🎃🌻

⚠️ Friendly PSA!! ⚠️

With spring officially being here, all farmers are working hard to get crops in while the weather is nice!!☀️🌽🌾

⚠️ Please SLOW down around any farm equipment!

⚠️ Please do not pass unless you can CLEARLY see no one else is coming!!

⚠️ & please DO NOT pass while we are turning!

We fully understand that we are slowing traffic down but we want both you & us to get to where we all need to be SAFELY!!

Happy Monday friends!!!🤩

I haven’t been on much in the past week so I thought I’d give a little update on what’s been going on!

➡️ babies, babies & more babies!!!🐮 we’ve had quite the rush of heifer calves born in the last week or so! we’re already up to 63 heifers for this year & last year we had 63 in the middle of June, so were quite busy with calves!🤩

➡️ Our fertilizer & Pioneer Seeds were delivered last week and over the weekend my dad was able to start planting!!🥳🌽🚜

➡️ other than that we’ve been working on fixing fences to get cows & heifers out in the pasture & getting everything else ready for the fields!🌽🌾
