    seed order

    I have used Rupp Seeds, Holmes Seed, Seedway, and Rispen Seeds (IL based) for my large quantity purchases. Pinetree was ok for buying just a few seeds to try. Did have a seed mix up with them though. Also Rareseeds.com for unusual heirloom/non gmo seeds in small packets, they have tons of...

    Thoughts on crops for profit

    Do you have a good place to sell it? That makes a huge difference on what you can market. I live on a busy highway out in the country and couldn't ask for a better location. I grow a few acres of fall produce. I have an honor box, in the off chance I'm not home. People are pretty honest here.

    what I'm up to now

    Punkin season is in full swing for me. Love my new Kubota for hauling everything. My golf cart was handy, but just couldn't handle the dust and wrecked 2 motors. The crop is great. I'll try to get more pics up sometime.

    Bull prospect

    I like the calf. I really like his depth of body. To me he doesn't like his muscle is that much more extreme. I'd like to see a little more extension in his neck. I'll be very interested to see how he develops.

    parade entry

    I guess I'm a typical farmer. I think I've lost my crop 5 times already :) but I think we will have something out there. It has been a cool July but the long range forecast is hotter and I need that heat to get things going. I hope to have a few things ready for the Iowa State Fair for me and...

    Retirement

    Hey now!!(But it's true) We live on a very busy highway and it's hard to get on the road sometimes. My FIL said "people will just have to get used to pulling out in front of vehicles. :shock: And we use semis to haul grain, so he really should know better...

    Modern Conveniences

    I could live without AC or indoor plumbing. Refrigeration would be tougher. But I think motor transportation would be the hardest thing to live without. We are all so used to jumping in the car and going somewhere we don't realize how long it would take if we had to hitch up horses or ride bikes...

    2 blues and a purple

    We started the fair on Sat with the static (non-livestock) exhibits. My son made One Banana Muffins (for that last lonely banana) and got a blue. First time he brought anything to the fair. Last years bars were a disaster. My daughter made the Mint Cookies I posted the recipe for and she got a...

    Nutria Rat

    That was a feature on Bizarre Foods one episode. One old boy caught them in the swamp and cooked it up for Andrew Zimmern. I think it cooked in a pot for a long time.
