Our Farm diary

As September moves on we will be planting our winter cereal crops, this year we are sowing winter wheat and winter barley. We have already have sown over 50 acres of wild bird seed and herbal leys for our environmental schemes. The ewes are now onto fresh grass waiting for the tups to join them at the beginning of October, the cows are now full on silage due to the low rainfall this summer and the lack of grass to graze. Harvest is a distant memory except for maize which should be at the beginning of October.
