It only took us a month or better....

but the fields are planted....
After several weeks of working the land only to have it just about ready to seed, it would rain and we would have to start over again!
As of last Friday, our 2 back hay fields are seeded, fertilized and rolled.
I knew it would be an undertaking with Dave working full time and everything else that goes on but little by little we managed to git er' done!

Hopefully next spring, our fields will look like this and we will have lots of hay to feed our ever expanding band of animals!

Just to note that we currently had our own hay fields and got our own hay crop but we had a hard winter on our hay last year that killed out most of our fields so we had to replant. We are hoping to buy our own haying equipment within the next year or so, so that we can harvest our own hay instead of paying huge custom work $$$'s for it!
