November on the farm
Well, the days are getting colder. Soon we will have to “tie up” but we are trying to keep the cows out as long as the weather permits. After the record snowfall on October 22nd, we’ve had many decent days with temps in the forties and occasionally even in the fifties. There’s not much grass growing these days, but the cows eat from the hay rings and enjoy getting outside for some fresh air and exercise. It’s a long winter in the barn in Northern Maine. We’re trying not to make it any longer than it absolutely has to be. More photos are available, including photos of two calves born this week.
