Last Thursday, a tractor was deployed to the future oat field pulling a cultipacker roller. The cultipacker smoothed out large clods of soil, in preparation for horse-drawn harrowing and planting. This is one of the jobs Howell Farm will call in the tractors for. Pulling the cultipacker across such rough ground is a difficult and potentially injury prone job for the horses.
Today Farmer Jeremy continued to plow the rest of the oat field. He reports that his team of horses, Bill and Jesse, are working well and appear to be in good health. Bill is recovering from a recent foot abscess.
