Barnyard at night

24 Dec 200719 Dec 2007 by Mike (tfb)

Here’s what I see coming out from the Milkhouse at night, as I head to the house. Facing is the goat barn, with the big old barn out of frame to the right, the farmhouse off to the left behind … Read the rest

Snowbanks

25 Dec 200717 Dec 2007 by Mike (tfb)

A brilliant sunshiny day after our 24 hours of snow. There are deep drifts everywhere, and the snowplow’s been by, leaving 3′ snowbanks along the roads. The farm is on the edge of a village of 300. Here’s a view … Read the rest

Stakes vs cages

6 Jul 200813 Dec 2007 by Mike (tfb)

Every year so far, there’ve been two or three major projects that I’m sure just HAVE to be done. They’re usually EXPENSIVE (at least, expensive in the world of tiny farm finances!), which means, they take some thought. We’ve had … Read the rest

The joy of decay…

2 Dec 202311 Dec 2007 by Mike (tfb)

During the growing season, decay is the last thing you want to see, let alone observe over time. In the off-season, what with culling veggies from cool storage, I’m a little more thoughtful about…decomposition.
