The Farmers In The Dell


After a rainy, sleety morning, this afternoon the weather fined up enough for some farming. Truth is, it's always fine enough for farming, even when it's pouring. Farming waits for no man - or woman.

Paddock by paddock we rounded up the goats


gave them a pre-kidding dose of drench


and where necessary trimmed their feet.



After all the recent rain the Mole Creek is in full flow.



And after last night and this morning's wild winds several large tree branches have come crashing down.


After a quick cuppa we headed out to the orchard to assess damage there and do some weeding.


I'm back in the city tomorrow. It's days like this I'll miss. Keep up the good work, Farmdoc.

  2. Keep up the good work, both of you. A great post WB, a great insight into life down in the Creek.
