Rain! We finally got a good rain, 1.5” on Sunday and .4” on Monday! What a difference it makes. We went from dust and brown to back to green. Our pastures are in really good shape because of all the rain and cool weather in the spring. Most of our spring field work is done so now we are turn to our summer project time. We plan on putting up some hoop buildings to provide a better winter environment for the cows and lots of fencing projects. Best of luck with everyone reopening.
