Enjoying the views while cultivating corn!
This year we had poor germination in S Field so we ended up deciding to turn it in and plant a second time, and boy are we glad we did! While these nice straight lines and clean passes sure are satisfying, farming is anything but clear and straightforward. Lots of complex decisions make up the day-to-day, hindsight is 20/20, and often the hardest decisions are knowing when to call it a loss and move forward with a new plan

Wrapping up the spring semester on the Farm! Always lots going on, but here's some memorable moments from the past few weeks 🍀🌳🌱🪏

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 😈
