How sweet! Beau usually spots a number of fawns each spring when he’s making his mowing rounds.
One dashed across the road in front of me a few weeks back, but I managed to stop in time. All spotty and cute! Mama was already across in the woods.
She’s not winning ‘Mother of the Year’ by any means!
'Soroya' Sunflower. AAS Winner, very little pollen so they make a nice cut flower. Throws out a lot of branches, so you get a ton of flowers off of one big plant.
Still Life with Sweet Corn. Stopping at our local Farm Market stand, today. It's probably Indiana or Illinois Sweet Corn at this point, but that's OK.
One of the corn fields, looking East. It was way past knee-high this 4th of July.
If I could take an aerial shot of the farm land around us, it would look like this picture, all planted in contour strips to help stop erosion. It's really quite lovely. Our farm has been a working farm since 1900, however, practices for preventing erosion at the time were not really understood. Therefor, we have a ton of rich, black soil in the pasture downhill from the farm, which we haul up for garden beds and landscaping. Couldn't ask for more!
