Labor Day Season

Happy Labor Day!

We celebrated Labor Day with our labor of love
called farming!
Labor Day seems to be the beginning of a new season--
the beginning of a wind down to prepare us for fall 
and winter.
It is a day to breathe a sigh of relief and offer a thank-you
to the good Lord for bringing us this far in the year with
sunshine and rain for the crops and water in the pond.

The cows would not understand if we didn't show up 
to feed them and make sure their day was going well!


While we were all doing different jobs today,
Cody chose to mow a field of hay 
located at the back of  a new neighborhood.


As we watched Cody pass by this house, I wondered what the neighbors 
think when a big green tractor passes by their back porch!

In Northwest Arkansas, this is becoming a much more
common occurrence to be farming next to a new 
housing subdivision.


                                               It gives a different meaning to urban farming!


 In this season of Labor,
we will be chopping corn soon to make corn silage
for winter feeding.

And the season of Labor Day continues,
with the very best gift--


                                                                   a farm and  family to love!
