Herford Cattle After A Long Winter

4/19/2013

You can tell the grass is greening up and the cattle held their weight and thrived through the winter.  Our fall calves developed and will be weaned the First of May. Our weather is damp and chilly but I am sure summer will arrive eventually.

I am not too concerned about getting our garden planted, the ground is wet and cold and more rain is in this weeks forecast.   The river bottoms have flooded, receded, and flooded more so all we can do is wait it out.  Farmers have been working fields, but nothing is planted.

At least we are not buried under snow like the northern states.  Winter 2012-2013  has been extremely interesting.
