Reason number 101 why it is great getting up on a summers morning. Taken by one of our team getting the cows in for morning milking 馃憣
A bit late to the party, but a massive shout out to all the people who helped make our open farm Sunday event a success. Unbelievable attendance, hugely appreciated. Thank you so much

Day 22 of AI, time to recruit some highly incentivised colleagues to help us out on the heat detection job. 2 bulls in with the 270 springs. Will serve alongside them for the next 3 wks
3 lovely black and white girls that caught my eye as I let the springs in their new field this afternoon 馃槏#lovecows馃槏
Sunday afternoon backing gate break down with Mondays repair by our local metal worker extraordinaire! If carlsberg did fabricators....
Spring bulling heifers, back on the platform through serving , helping lift stocking rate and chomp through a bit of that surplus grass
Mown 13 days ago, 2nd cut is on its way at least. 5mm rain today to help it along, was starting to test the drought tolerance of red clover
