Recent Activity

It's been a while since our last post, but there hasn't been a lack of activity on the farm. We've made some great strides in the last three weeks and I can't wait for you to see how things are coming.  There have been countless hours of pushing up debris, burying debris that wouldn't burn and discing. We finished the fence on the west side of the property two weeks ago. This past weekend Eddie, Bob and Uncle Chuck drilled the water well. We also cut hay on four different pastures. We finished baling the third pasture yesterday and we already have fifty three rolls on the ground! John made a "handshake" agreement with our cattle supplier to hold our price until December when the grass is ready. We will be going to his farm in mid September to choose and tag the cattle we'll be purchasing. From this point on I think our primary focus will be on planting grass and finishing the fence. We work every Saturday starting around 7:30 a.m.. Give us a call or email if you want to come help or just see how things work. We'd love to have you! I am posting some pictures of all our recent activity on the website. www.butterfieldfarm.net/life_on_the_farm
