Barley Harvest Continues


The guys are going full force to harvest the barley right now. Things have finally dried out to a point at which the crop can be taken off. A couple more days and barley harvest will be complete.

Smells Like Harvest

I was out in the backyard, and I could smell it before I even saw the combine...




 Barley harvest began today with the field next to our house. It looks mostly like the next barley won't be ready until Monday.

Faces of Agriculture


Two weeks ago Weckerly Farms was featured on the Faces of Agriculture blog. Jump over there to see the post and some lovely farm pictures. You can peruse their site and read the stories of many others in the farming and ranching community as well. Thanks to Elizabeth and Jamie for featuring us!

Feeding Families, Petitions

Chad, along with many other ND Farm Bureau members, has been out gathering signatures to get the "right to farm" amendment on the November ballot. Here was our original post about the topic.

Yesterday Chad was featured on NDFB Newsline (follow the link and click on 7/16/12: Petition Carrier Chad to hear him speak).

All petitions must be in before the end of this month so if you or anyone you know (who is a North Dakota resident) is interested in signing, email Chad and he will make sure you get the opportunity to do so.
