A few highlights from the weekly farmers’ meeting:
-Fall plowing is coming soon, and Farmer Jeremy is curious to put a plow in the ground to see how the soil turns over. He’s afraid it’s been too dry. “I have a feeling we won’t be able to plow until it rains,” he said. Hopefully that will be before the plowing match in two weeks.
-Farmer Jeremy also remarked that it’s been the best fly season he’s ever seen. By best, he means he’s hardly seen any of the big, hard-biting “bombers” that harass the draft horses and oxen for a few weeks each summer.
-Around the farm today there will be fence-post fixing, hay baling, and draft horses rides for visiting children.
