As usual, summer was here and gone in the blink of an eye. The drought during mid summer did some damage to our corn crop and I anticipate yields will suffer. However, our soybean fields in the southern part of the county received much more rain than here at the home farm. The soybeans are above waist high. I believe we will exceed expectations with the soybeans. We will be finishing up the final cutting of hay in the coming weeks.
Right now we are busy preparing for our corn maze & fall festival. The maze was beat up pretty bad in Hurricane Irene, but we have the trails cleared and game stations in place. The fall festival opens Sept. 17th and we will remain open Saturdays and Sundays until Halloween. We have the corn mazes, corn slide, cow train ride, farm animals, hayrides to the pumpkin patch, and much more!! It is a great place for families to enjoy the whole day!! Things will be hectic throughout the next two months. Besides having the corn maze open, we will be making more hay, harvesting corn & soybeans, planting winter wheat, and more!! Check back in!
