Dairy Farmer's Thankful Thursday

We kicked off  the 2020 hay  season down on the
 dairy farm this week. I felt like we should be having a 
hay party to celebrate this season of hay production that 
has been delayed with cool, rainy weather all spring.

Hay is used in feeding our dairy cows everyday.
It is part of the special diet that is formulated by
our dairy nutritionist to make sure the cows are provided 
all the nutrients needed to produce milk and maintain health.

I'm thankful that the sun kept shining while this hay
was cut and baled before the next rain shower


and 

                                                         
                                                     that we did celebrate our first hay day
                                                 with the birthday of our head farmer and
                                                             his candle blowing helpers!
