The Harvest is Plentiful
Rain in the forecast through Saturday. But come Sunday the sun should be shining and, Lord willing, we’ll be combining our oats and wheat. We’ve had a neighbor combine our oats before, but we have our own combine now! My honey has been working on it, and it should be ready to roll.
I’m excited because I planted a plot of wheat and it’s done now. I was going to hand harvest, but decided to try the combine. Less work sounds like a much better idea. Growing our own wheat should help with our grocery bill considerably. I usually by my grain through the local coop and it's $45 for 50 lbs. I'm hoping to harvest enough for us for the year, some seed for next year and enough grain for my parents, also.
Time to hit the garden.
Happy Harvesting!

How did farm sitting the emus go? How interesting. My husband has talked about growing our own wheat and oats. Maybe in the not too distant future. Blessings and have a great day.....Teresa
