Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

farming is still deadly. my tractor fix it guy's dad rolled his tractor over and was killed a few years ago. and i had an aquaintance seasoned farmer did the old, poke your hand into the corn picker and was pulled in and killed.
i can't believe August is almost over.
seems like I haven't done anything constructive.
didn't spend even one day in the wood shop. all winter i had so many plans. the plans are still there
 
For all of you that we're gonna buy meat chickens this spring. How many did you get? And how did it go?
I think I might try it next spring

we don't buy meat chickens any more.
when we did, we ordered 200 for a family of 5. would give my brother many for helping butcher.
when it dwindled down to just the 2 of us we ordered 50.
i am thinking of selling the chicken plucker. haven't used it for a few years.
 
Hope everyone can get out and enjoy the coming weekend. It sounds like perfect outside weather is on the way!
We bought 5 doz corn from the neighbor @ $4 per doz. We froze 28 bags and enjoyed some on the weber grill.
The deer ate most of the garden here. I still have potatoes and some green peppers that were caged, as well as my cabbage.
Won't be long now until deer season is starting.

Stay Safe ... bigz
 
too bad the deer already ate all the bait. you could have sat on the back porch with a cup of coffee and hunted.
i dragged the box blade on the driveway yesterday. did a fair job, but can still slightly detect the big pot holes. will go at it again and concentrate on those.
lettuce still has not bolted. i am impressed.
the tomatoes are about done. still plenty of green ones.
the woodchuck is getting tamer. actually is tamer than our cat. he let Annie walk almost close enough to touch him.
