Very little wind and some sunshine this morning helped to make the -5 degree temperature while doing chores feel a bit more bearable! Bob has been busy during this long stretch of near zero degree days making sure everyone has plenty of bedding, feed, water, and shelter from the wind. Tomorrow's forecast for our area is a high of -9 degrees with wind chill values as low as -40 degrees. Stay safe and warm, everyone! 🧡

Bob has been hard at work making modifications to our research plot planter. A man of many trades - farmer, researcher, fabricator/welder, agronomist, mechanic, vet, artist... and then some. We will be hitting the road in the coming days (and warmer weather) to plant organic corn and soybean research trials for Albert Lea Seed House.

It's all in the bag... silage bag, that is! During these cold winter months our cows and calves have been enjoying triticale/pea, buckwheat, and corn silage - all chopped and bagged last summer and fall from our organic fields - in addition to lots of grass/alfalfa hay. Makes for content cows and happy farmers!
