Buck in his chair

Here is Buck in his chair. He was a good boy!

Buck

Our dear dog, Buck, passed away this morning after a week long liver illness. I will post an image tonight. He was a devoted friend.

Cod Liver Oil

We switched to Green Pastures cod liver oil. It is an important source of vitamin D. I met the people that supply it and liked them. They are dairy farmers from Nebraska.

Rain

We got around 2" rain last night! Our field corn was starting to really look stressed and the lawn was burned up (except the weeds).

Sauerkraut

We made lacto-fermented sauerkraut last night. We bought a nice cabbage at the local farmers market and used it. It was very juicy. I hope it turns out well. We used the recipe from Nourishing Traditions.

Buck and Molly

Here I am with Buck and Molly. Molly passed away a couple years ago from pancreatitis/diabetes. I still miss her (she is the chocolate lab). Buck is now a senior dog and may not be with us long because of heart disease.

It has been several years since I last posted. I will try to be more regular in writing. We are currently buying milk from a local farmer after milking for a couple years. We still have our "big" herd of two Jersey cows. They were AIed to a New Zealand based Jersey bull.
