There it is! New Alfalfa! A promise of early summer—oh, yes, and middle summer, and not to be forgotten late summer haying season!
What a delight to see—and this year we have not just one 20-acre field but TWO 20-acre fields! (I do think Terry and I are going to be a tad busy 🙂 🙂 ) Just say’n. And we are planting 10 more acres into alfalfa.
