A Slick New Year On The Farm

Welcome to 2021 :)
So if you didn't pick up on it in the video I spent hours busting ice off of our fences. Hahaha several miles of them. Thankfully only a few animals had accidentally wondered out by accident (they were not far and none of them had left the farm so that was good!). By lunch all the cows and sheep had some warm hay to lay on and eat and all the critical fences were back up Yay!
And along the way I had some fun knocking down ice castle weeds with a fence post ( yes my boys really enjoyed this as well, I just couldn't help myself and had to join in; honestly it was great stress relief on an otherwise pretty crazy day)
My hat goes off to Roy our very talented delivery driver who managed to safely navigate the roads to ensure that all the Fed From The Farm families would still get their nutrient rich food at the buying club pickups that weekend.
Chris braved the icy roads too and took a break from getting our on farm processing going to help me get all the cows and sheep hay.
It was a full first day of the new year on the farm but It was a good one too. Challenges are not things to loathe they are opportunities to grow!
Blessings
Your Farmer
