We’ve come to that point in the year where the Oregon weather has made the ground wet enough that it’s time for the Ladies to come off the pastures and into the barns for winter. We rotationally graze our herd for as many months out of the year as the weather allows. But once the […]
My Favorite Thing about Dairy Farming
I have several posts sitting in my blog that are waiting for a final edit before I publish them. Ok in all honesty there is over a months worth of drafts staring me in the face. And as I was writing all of them something more important kept nagging at the back of my mind. […]
Cow Appreciation Day
National Cow Appreciation Day is today! I know I posted on Facebook about this Friday as some had declared that the day, but I’m hearing again that it’s today.

When S#*T Happens…..You can’t make this stuff up!

Featured!
Today is a mind numbing day, so I feel like my excitement has been dampened. This week in general has just been horrific all around the world. Makes me want to dig a hole and crawl inside! But then again it is a reminder that we never know when our last day will be. Never […]
