Harvest of 2014 is done on the Blair Farm. We finished up on the 8th of November. All in all, harvest went well for us. It seemed long. We started on the 29th-30th of September and were completely finished by the 8th of November. Not too much different than last year (started on September 27 and finished on November 3rd)!
It snowed shortly after harvest was complete, so we weren't able to do any strip-tillage. Next spring, I'll share that process with you.

Prior to the snow we did get some cornstalks baled for our cattle.
We moved cattle from the pasture onto cornstalks. This was the field that had turnips and rye on it. There wasn't a TON of cover crop there when we put the cattle on the stalks, but they still seem pretty happy!
The beef calves were sold (these were the calves that were in the pasture all year). The kids got to skip out of daycare to go with Dad :)
Have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving!
Love,
The Blairs
