Here we are middle of July! This week is normally a week of getting things dialed in – for our Open House! We are going to continue to get things dialed in this week as we are working on a Virtual Crop Tour! We have been collecting some pictures from […]
Kim Jo Bliss – Moo’s From The Herd
I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful Canada Day! The weather was amazing! I went to Mine Centre for a little Bliss Fishing. Most times I like to brag about catching most of the fish but this time it wasn’t the case. I started with a broken line, then my boyfriend […]
You may have noticed that many farmers are busy trying to make hay now. If the weather would stay stable, it sure would make things nice. We finished taking the plot yields on all our forage trials last week but didn’t get it all cut with the bigger equipment because […]
So, the plan was to start cutting hay at EARS last week and then the weather changed. The plan is on for this week. It doesn’t take us all that long to cut our research portion of the forages, but we still must clean off the rest of it. I […]
And just like that, it is the middle of June! We were planning to start our first cut of hay at EARS this week. We will see how that all plays out. With all the rain last week we were out of our plots until Friday, so other things have […]
It was a busy weekend for our little farm! Saturday morning, we were up and at-er to haul cows to my grandma’s farm. We hauled all the cows and saved the calves for the last load. It went well. The next group of cows were staying right at my place […]
June 1st has arrived and today is my boyfriends / partners 60th birthday! We are not planning a big party and it is a good thing since we are still not allowed more than five people to gather! He is pretty busy with his garage so maybe once it is […]
Another great weekend in Rainy River District. We had a small shower of rain that didn’t even record in the rain gauge. But that is ok. June can be a wet month, so we must be careful what we wish for. I have not really got over last falls extreme […]
What a beautiful weekend! I hope you all had a chance to enjoy some of it. Though we had many projects on the go, they were outside, so we still enjoyed this great weather. It must be a record to have such great weather for an entire long weekend! One […]
The news broke last week that our Emo Fall Fair is cancelled. Heartbreaking, but certainly understandable. It will be the first fair that I have missed in my life (or at least I think. . . ) There is a lot of rumblings going on about our 4-H Beef Clubs. […]
Today is my first day with my 2020 helper! Katie Hay is my right-hand helper for this summer at the Emo Agricultural Research Station. I am looking forward to working with her. She told me that she is excited to learn so that just made my day! We should be […]
How about this weather!?! Amazing morning. A bit of rain and you can instantly see the green grass. Just like that I felt like I was feeling calm and relaxed and BOOM – I need to be in three places at once. I am so happy for the producers that […]
