Blog: Harp Turkey Ranch   -   Thursday December 11, 2008   -   By Wes

Today was the day to get the pigs moved to their new pen, as they are done in their first pen. The new one is a little bit bigger with more brush. I guess you can say we are really putting them to the test now. LOL First I strung the new polytape on the poles...

Thanksgiving and Thanks Receiving

Blog: I Heart Farms   -   Wednesday November 26, 2008   -   By Tana

I don't have a farm. I don't plant seeds, I bury them. So naturally ("nature" + "ally"), I am grateful to all of the farmers in my life. They're my heroes. This year in particular, my appreciation has grown enormously, as I have gotten...

Blog: Henry's Farm   -   Tuesday November 25, 2008   -   By Henry

As we wind up yet another year, the bittersweet wabi-sabi feelings return.  Wabi-sabi is a Japanese concept that is hard to translate, but takes in the brief life of a delicate flower, the earthy aroma of autumn leaves beginning to decay, the...

A Tiny Turkey Flock

Blog: The Call Again Farm Journal   -   Tuesday November 25, 2008   -   By Laura
