Molly has made the transition to OAD (once a day) Molly has made the transition to OAD (once a day) milking. I love it when my cows get to this point in their lactations😅 The cow’s milk supply is stable and the calf nurses enough so that we can find this lovely balance. 

I still keep Molly locked off of fresh grass at night feeding her cake and alfalfa. This keeps the rumen working and makes the milk sweeter and creamier. Her calf is locked in with her at night, for now. 

Penny (the heifer on the left) stays out on grass all night.

Canned this year’s first batch of peaches this w Canned this year’s first batch of peaches this week. So delicious!! I grew up helping my mom can, and peaches was one of my favorite things to help with 😋 

45 peaches to a dozen quarts for reference. 

Pro tips: To get beautiful canned peaches (that aren’t mushy), can the peaches when they are just starting to get soft to the touch. 

When removing skins in hot water, watch them closely and remove them from the water as soon as the skin is ready to peel. If you leave then in too long the peaches will start to cook and they won’t can up as pretty😍
For a few years now I’ve been focusing on adding For a few years now I’ve been focusing on adding more perennials to our landscape. One of the reasons why…I love Hydrangeas😍 This Incrediball hydrangea is still young, but it’s blooms are so big and beautiful, and they last a long time! 

Perennials are so good for giving structure and beauty to a landscape. It’s been a dry year, and these babies love moisture, so making sure they have enough water has been a priority. 💦
