I haven’t picked cob corn in 35 years, but today was one peach of a day that brings back memories of working with an open station tractor pulling the Corn Picker.Harvest memories, we all have them.

For your Christmas list , a book written by my niece ! amazon.ca/dp/B0HNL6ZPWN

Some final Corn Silage for 2026 !

And it begins again after the 110 mm rain

Good morning, an old fashioned Indian Summer about to arrive .

Water table is high this morning, don’t recall seeing this before

There is no perfect feed storage system. But having watched several videos of Silo filling once again this fall simply reminds me . They are great when we are young and the equipment is new. At my age I have no regrets doing away with them, and working ground level.

So much to be thankful for but , thank God everyday for our Children 🧒

Happy Thanksgiving Folks !

Being neighbourly I thought it would be appropriate to stop the Manure spreading in the early afternoon going into Thanksgiving Weekend . One thing about having a Community Graveyard beside the Farm. Stopping work sometimes is the Courtesy thing to do.Enjoy Harvest Celebrations!

Harvest 2026 !

Well, we were spared the frost this Morning.Our Pioneer P9026AM planted NoTill on June 1st following the 1st cut hay crop closing in on “Black Layer”. It happens to be the latest we will have ever Chopped Silage on our farm. Happy and Safe harvest everyone !

Seems an appropriate evening to test out the Home heating, heating Season has begun here in Eastern Ontario.

Step outside this evening and you can smell the scent of field drying corn in the atmosphere.

Alfalfa put to bed for the Winter, Cow Chow 2027-2028 !

I think we knew this ! cbc.ca/news/world/world-dair…

Nice to see, the Pioneer 9492AM variety has Matured !

Day #119 after Planting, Notilled after the 1st Crop Hay . Pioneer 9026 AM.

Returning some Nutrients,who would have thought 3 weeks ago we would see dust at Summer’s end ?

Old fashioned here 1/1000th hand picked yield ⚠️. That would make for a big Crib at the end of the day. A yield of 750 buckets per acre !
