Matter of fact there seems to be only one thing that every species of animal
agrees on around here. Can you guess what that is? That is right F-O-O-D. It
always has to be time for food. When is it...

One of the things we're known for, and a point of pride for us, is that we do all our field work and hay making with a team of draft horses. For us, this is truly what "sustainable" is all about; the horses help us to make the hay in the summer...
