WE'RE DONE SEEDING!!!

 Hi everyone,

I decided after that sad post last time, we all needed something to laugh about.  I didn't grow up with all of the funny farm slogans I shared below but many of them are familiar to me.

Robert and I have been farmers all of our lives except for our years in collage and 4 years of living in the city.  Those were looooong years when we tried to forget that we're farmers.  

It truly is in one's blood, though. When the soil in the Spring warms up and animal babies start arriving on the Earth, we MUST plant seeds!! 

Our guys finished planting in the fields yesterday.  Now that I'm done running for parts; packing lunches; helping move equipment around, I can FINALLY turn my attention to my garden.  YAY.

Here's to rains coming at the right times and great prices for what we produce here on our farm.

PS.  That extra seat is sure nice for Grandmas and Littles to catch a ride comfortably!
