November at the Farm



The Farm Market is Closed for the Season.
Please come see us April 1st for Beef, Pork and Flowers
I will continue the blog so you can see what farmers do in the winter.
Lots of people ask us what we do in the winter so I'll keep you updated.

Our family just got back from a cattle show in Louisville. It is called the North American Livestock Show. We took Kyle's bred heifer to the show. He worked really hard for 5 days washing, feeding, watering and caring for his animal. She placed really well in the show and she now is going to join the others in the pasture. She is due to have her calf in the spring. Kyle will be updating the blog with pictures of the birth and her calf.

Kara was named the Michigan Shorthorn Lassie Queen for 2009 -2010. We raise Shorthorns and she will be representing the breed in Michigan and at the Nationals. Some of the meat that we sell at the farm market is from Shorthorn cows. The quality is excellent and taste is awesome.
