Save This Farm



New grazing


brown top millet is ready!






This morning the cows got the surprise of their lives. (so far) They were allowed to go into the new pasture we purchased. We planted brown top millet in it and in the field next door. We are using this pasture for grazing and the neighboring field for bailing. We have been rotating them between just two pastures and they had done a fine job of eating up all the grass. When I led them into the new area this morning they were very happy cows. (I can just tell)


We really hope the green millet turns into lots of pounds on cows. The more the cows weigh the more money we will make. (fingers and toes are crossed) So happy eating!


Green facts:


1) cows love green grazing


2) Jake loves to play in the millet field chasing crickets


3) I love seeing the animals enjoying the green field
