Although the season of delicious corn on the cob is long past here, field corn season is taking its turn as the main farm job. We planted quite a few acres of field corn in the spring to feed the animals over the winter. Unlike sweet corn, field...

I have suffered with low Iron for 9 (diagnosed) years, and probably many before then.
This is what a small scrape will look like only hours afterwards if my Iron is low. This scrape was barely noticable when it happened.
When I had our...

Well, we live in the middle of nowhere. When I drive out to go check cows, this is my view for about 2 miles.
I enjoy living out in the country, but it is hard to find good help. But, having a family farm, means that I DO have some...

We had perfect weather at the market today! It has been rainy for the past few weeks. We are seeing the last of the tomatoes, corn and berries. Vendors had leeks, onions, pepper, salad mix greens, herbs (and herb teas as well!), LOTS of baked...

We moved cows the other day. I thought that I would share some of the beautiful views. This is one of my most favorite views on the earth. Cows out front moving together to new fresh grass.
Beau is on a Quarter Horse we raised...

It seems as though summer and it's bounty is slipping away only to be followed by the Fall Harvest. It is sad to see one season pass but at the same time it is very exciting to see what the next season will bring! Today we started collecting our pumpkins...

Dan and I love going to auctions. Lately, we haven't been to many as most farm auctions start at 9 AM on Saturdays, which is our mad rush to get the stand in order before opening. So I was very excited to find an "old farm moving auction"...

September is one of my favorite months of the year. Most of the warm summer crops are still available at the farmers market and some of the cooler fall crops are starting to make an appearance. It just doesn't get any better than that!
We can all...

The corn is put up for the year, one more task to mark as "done" on the to-do list. Two bushels seems sufficient for my husband and myself. Though a little time consuming, I really love my vaccuum sealer for putting up food. I used...

On a grey day like this morning, I'm reminded that dreary days in fall and winter won't be far behind. It gives me extra incentive to put up what I can for those cold months when growing anything that won't fit on a windowsill is impossible. So the...

The farmer's markets are rich with peppers, tomatoes, corn and farm fresh eggs. Put it altogether and make brunch for a friend or two. Huevos Rancheros. I want some now.

And oh the taste!
Yummy.

We are finishing up this year's corn crop. We had a good growing season and our corn turned out very well. We cut most of it for silage and saved some to pick as ear corn. The heirloom variety we planted- Boone County White- produced some very tall stalks and...

I grew up thinking a potato was a potato...something you mashed and served with gravy. Or, you fried them to have with your eggs for breakfast. An extra special treat was a trip to a fast food for the occasional burger and “fries!” My mom used to boil small...

It just doesn't get any better than that! Unless you add the wonderful squash, peppers, taters and cucumbers too! Heck, throw in some onions, garlic and even some broccoli! Of course you can't forget the wonderful blackberries, raspberries and rhubarb!
