Well we successfully finished of our Sale Season this weekend. The cattle were all loaded and on their way to their new homes by 2:00 p.m. on Sunday which is record setting. On Saturday we sold 988 head. We were expecting a few more animals but because of the nice […]

November has arrived and it sounds like we are in for some decent weather. Although we will all welcome some nice warm, sunny days, it will most likely make quite a mess on the roads and in the barn yard. Things have frozen up nicely in most places and it […]
Here we are into the last week of October and we have seen snow already for a couple of weeks! I am hearing that things are going to warm up again so we will see the return of the mud season. It hasn’t been that bad but sounds like we […]
Another Monday after a cattle sale! And to top it off I took Friday off, so I am really rushing around trying to get on track. We survived another cattle sale – and of course it decided to turn into winter for us! Thankfully Saturday we didn’t get any precipitation […]
I hope everyone was able to enjoy a great Thanksgiving weekend – with or without turkey. I was fortunate to be able to celebrate with a few friends on Saturday night (with a ton of laughs and teasing) and again on Sunday night with my family. I know I have […]

Each year, the week leading up to Thanksgiving weekend in Ontario Agriculture week, as […]
I was fortunate to be able to take off a few days last week and do some much needed tasks at home. We are at a good spot her at the Station but now we really need to get cleaning seed and doing some data! We will. This week that […]
This fall weather is so excellent! Really there is nothing like a long, warm, dry fall. I hope everyone is getting out and enjoying it. For me it seems extra special after last fall. I was a wreck stressing about the mud and mess. I am thankful not only for […]
What! The middle of September has arrived. It certainly seems like time is moving quickly and maybe more so as the days get shorter and we all try to pack as much possible into our days. The sunshine really helps with everyone’s mood and as well the long to-do lists! […]
It was a decent long weekend for us, provided you survived the crazy winds on Sunday night. We ended up with no power, so it seemed like a dark, long evening. I had some office jobs planned for that evening, so they had to wait. We were entertained by Black […]
Hard to believe we are moving into September. I think to myself; it is harder to believe as we missed out on the Emo Fair. We often gauge things based on the Fair. I wouldn’t complain if summer lasted a few more months and I could certainly find enough work […]
We got our combine back last week and started right into harvesting. We were lucky to have a young helper for a day last week. Levi was visiting his grandma and grandpa and he has strong interest in farming and growing. We enjoyed him so much and his knowledge was […]
