Wrapping up the spring semester on the Farm! Always lots going on, but here's some memorable moments from the past few weeks πŸ€πŸŒ³πŸŒ±πŸͺ

1. Elder dropping some knowledge during the crew meeting on identifying common trees and invasives on the farm
2. Cate breaking ground in Upper Field to give it a much needed makeover! It will be planted with a diverse warm season mix in the coming weeks
3. Blair and George Wilder talking silvopasture as we install electric protection on all the planted trees
4. Gen crew getting real familiar with a shovel and uncovering decades-old water line mysteries
5. Making baleage in Hatties for winter beef feed
6. Running irrigation on our first year perennial pastures in the evenings and dancing for more rain
7. Claiming victory in this year's Farm v Forestry softball game 😈

Some moments from Winter Break 25/26 β˜€οΈβ„οΈβ˜€οΈ

Beautiful sunrises
Hanging up the Charlies barn lights
Rays of sunshine
Boy cat skulking around the Granary
Piranhas
Mulberries for the pigs of the future
Fluffed baleage
Cozy pig house
Quiet sunsets
& a sleepy old sow

A beautiful rainbow stretched across the valley this morning 🌈🌽
As we approach corn harvest this week, it truly feels like it's sitting over a pot of gold!

Welcome back owls!!

Our summer workers have been busy the past 3 months, putting up winter feed and bedding, rotationally grazing all of our critters, cooking up food and keeping our pastures looking pretty! As the summer comes to an end we are PUMPED to welcome everyone back to campus, and 10 new students onto the farm crew!

This semester we are looking forward to harvesting our beautiful corn crop, establishing more silvopasture, integrating a livestock guardian dog, attending some conferences, opening a storefront, and bringing people together around food.

Stay tuned for some community events we'll be hosting this semester - including a Fall Fest full of great music, as well as the opening of our new retail storefront on the weekend of the Fall Meat Sale.
