It’s been so nice here the past week.
And we have been getting fields worked down for planting.
All the while hazelnuts have been falling!
So stay tuned and next week I’ll have more about our final crop to harvest! Have a great weekend!

Bower’s Family Farm, Photo Friday
This week I thought I would put some pictures on here from my friend Marie Bowers. She is a 5th generation farmer from down in the southern part of the Willamette Valley here in Oregon. She is also a blogger and is the one who convinced me to start this darn thing in the first place! You can check out what she’s up to and subscribe to her blog at http://www.oregongreen.wordpress.com
Harvest equipment out in their yard, taking a break from the long harvest days.
After a tractor broke down the Bowers got creative…good old farmer ingenuity.
The grass seed is in the barn after harvest and ready to be cleaned, bagged, and sold!
And now it’s time for planting next year’s crop!
Thanks Marie for letting me share some of your photos and for sharing your love for farming! And like I said you should definitely check out her blog! One of my favorite posts has a ton of videos about grass harvest, a nice way to see what’s going on at her farm! You can click here to see the post. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
Photo Friday, Padget Ranches
We’re back to Eastern Oregon for Photo Friday this week. My good friend Logan and his family run a wheat farm in the Grass Valley, Oregon area.
Logan is the fifth generation on his family’s wheat ranch. Three of which are working on the farm right now!
They raise soft white wheat that is sold all over the world!
This is Logan’s trusty sidekick…what is it about farmers and their dogs?
Just another day of living the dream for Logan and his family.
