July 8, 2026 — Cleaning out the cattle shed

The cattle have been out on pasture since late spring, spending most of their time resting in the grasses or under the trees.

But when summer storms roll in or the crazy heat spikes, they head straight for the shelter of the cattle shed.

This week Jeff used the skid steer to scoop out their pens so they have a clean, dry area for the storms tonight.

A friend of ours loves this stuff for his gardens in Crete, so Jeff moved it all to an unused pen and loaded up Joel’s dump truck when he arrived earlier this evening.

Now the cattle have somewhere safe and dry to be whenever the storms decide to roll in.

A Note on Affiliate Links

Transparency is part of our Shalom.

As we share updates about our farm and personal life, we often link to the tools, books, and resources we truly use and love. Some of these are affiliate links.

You'll also find links to our own products, waitlists, and occasionally items we've sourced for resale — we only share what we'd use ourselves.

If you click a link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. Think of it as a "thank you" to us from the brand for the referral. These small contributions help us cover our ever-growing farm expenses and allow us to keep sharing our journey with you in a sustainable way.
