Never had slugs before. Here we are. Anyone got a good way to stop them from getting more? Seems to be getting worse by the day.

If I have anyone with a back haul that can bring back round bales from either Western Iowa or Southeast Colorado, I have two generous donors willing to load you, and the couple of good old boys in the center of this picture in western NE that will offload you here near Lewellen NE when you arrive.
Today, my good friends @laurafarms_ and @LEAADFarms donated bales and fencing supplies for our producers affected by fires here in the west, then Grant and Laura toted it halfway across the state to help those in need. I'm not asking for anything, but if you're interested in donating, we @FedCropAgency have decided we are going to help coordinate more of this. We have a client with a ranch about 12 miles south of the Morrill Fire, near Lewellen NE, that is willing to store whatever is donated and aid in distributing it. They are willing to donate their time and equipment to help you offload, and load up those in need, as they equipment on site to do so. If you want to help, or are in need, call our Chappell office @ 308-874-2708 to coordinate pickup or delivery. This means more to us than you can imagine as we have many clients affected by the Morrill Fire. Some who have lost it all. On a very personal note, thank you Cale and Laura. Your family means the world to mine.

My wife’s aunt wrote a children’s book about her donkeys. You should check it out on amazon. It’s a good book.

My son took a cool picture of the northern lights over the shop from the house.

I hope everyone who needs it will look for help. Whether that is a farmer struggling financially (none of us are having fun right now) or someone with hate for another political party (which are made up) or anyone else. There are resources available to help. God bless.

Did a test at home. First picture no fungicide, second picture had two pass (generic pre tassel Revytek post). Third picture had 3 pass (same but added a generic pass a week ago). No clue if the last pass will pay in bushels but I can see a difference in the plant. Kinda neat.

My dad and I were working on the planter today. My seven year old made dad stop and help him build an Easter cross. I don’t usually post things like this but what a humbling experience. Made me really proud. Celebrate Jesus tomorrow. Happy Easter everyone. Be safe this season.

This mornings results. My oldest was making a small scale model in the background (I was not aware of that until he pointed it out).

And honestly the crosses turned out amazing. He used old scrap wood that we have been using to block wheels.

When is it a “good time” for markets to do healthy market things like expand AND CONTRACT?

My wife started making tallow cream a few months ago for our family. Then she started selling it. Now she has a website. It’s the best stuff you should totally order some! farmandthree.com

I managed to find the only herd of live deer in western Iowa this morning on my way home from the gym. Still made church though!

facebook.com/share/18HLcpu1q… My wife started making tallow cream for skin. (can’t call it lotion cause lotion has water and what appear to be a bunch of things I cannot pronounce) this stuff is awesome and she ships anywhere in the USA. Lots of different scents. #beef

The view from my house. I am lucky to live where I grew up and farm with my dad. He has made a lot of sacrifices to keep this together for us.
