While kids are at vacation Bible school right now, our cows are both at vacation bull school, which I’ve also been calling Love Camp.
Mommy Cow, our angus, has been with an angus bull for almost 6-weeks and now Maisy, our mini Jersey/Dexter cross, is with a mini Jersey bull.
By the grace of God (and I truly mean that) I met another mom at church who happened to mention their family just got into farming and they bought an A2 Jersey bull. After two unsuccessful artificial insemination attempts using mini Jersey bull semen, I have been looking for the “real deal”. It is very hard to find a mini Jersey bull “for rent” - most people want to sell you the bull but I don’t want one here for safety reasons.
We had considered a (very cute) Highland bull but hadn’t taken Maisy there yet. Then, boom! The perfect bull just appears 30 minutes down the road. If all goes well, we should have a calf and fresh milk next Spring!
Don’t forget you can support the farm and your health by shopping with Green Pasture and using “ALISON” as your promo code at check out. The fermented cod liver/butter oil saved my teeth after a lifetime of chronic cavities. They also have a great muscle/chest rub for when you’re sore or sick. https://greenpasture.org/
I was sitting down to do some work at my desk/podcast studio and found a duck egg on it. I have no clue how it got there, when, or why it was there. I’m pretty sure the duck didn’t lay it there. But who knows. Anything is possible on this farm. I’ve seen weirder things and Lily is known to bring animals inside. 🤔
Eggs are a staple for our health. So is the fermented cod liver/butter oil from https://greenpasture.org/ which is packed with nutrition for your brain, joint, muscle, immune and gut. Use promo code “ALISON” at checkout for 10% off. Have a great weekend!
Now that I produce food, instead of just buy it from the grocery store, I see it all so much more clearly. It’s truly mind-boggling that you can easily buy a food item with carcinogens in it, and have no idea of its origin or processing, but if you want to come to my farm and ask me a million questions and even pet the animals - I cannot sell you a steak to eat or milk to drink. Is anyone surprised why people are so sick? It’s time to end the war on small food.
And as for the war on cavities or weak bones, don’t forget to support another small business, Green Pasture. I have been taking their fermented cod liver / concentrated butter oil for 15 years and I was shocked when I stopped getting cavities because I had been plagued by them for so long. Use “ALISON” as your promo code to check out for 10% off. https://greenpasture.org/
A couple years ago we discovered wild blackberry plants growing in our back pasture. This year, the harvest was not very large due to the drought. However, it has me thinking, maybe this is the one fruit plant I can actually grow without killing it? When we first moved to Florida a couple years ago, I invested several hundred dollars into trees like a mango tree and a peach tree and an avocado tree. Later I bought a pear tree and a nectarine tree. Sadly, none of them are still alive. I am now hesitant to invest even one dollar into more fruit bearing plants until I figure out why I continue killing them. Anyway, the wild blackberries have inspired me to try that as they seem to be growing here with no care whatsoever. What do you think? Any suggestions on what to try?
Don’t forget to head over to Green Pasture for the fermented cod liver/butter oil blend - one of the best nutritional investments I’ve made for my own health. Full of vitamins, minerals and omega 3s to support ...
