I have some friends that raise cattle,tough work.Lose an animal to disease or injury and there goes your profit margin.We might start a few head in the future,at least we would know what they were fed so I’d feel a lot better about eating beef.You just wouldn’t hardly believe what goes on at the big feedlots-—

I make my own sourdough.......well, most the time it's edible...I'm learning; therefore, I'm contributing to your living, hopefully.

Thanks for the hard work (seriously). It's probably the most honorable profession....a carpenter, a welder, a chemist, a mechanic, a husband, a father, a meteorologist, an accountant, and an athlete all rolled into one.

Technology still hasn't come up with an 'off switch' to put the garden and the crop on hold until you feel like bringing it in...LOL

Cows need a-milkin' if they ain't calving and that comes twice a day too.

It's easier to heard cats than to get people to think and accept reality.

Yes, exactly. I've been looking into some local sources myself. Best of luck to you, you got us over a bushell...: )
