Ken, I enjoyed the videos, especially the one the drone took. How many acres is the hay field?

Hi Bob - thanks for watching the video. The field is 8 acres. We only took about 6 of the 8 because an issue developed with the power steering that made turning too difficult. We don't need much hay for the pigs and goats so we mow the rest 3-4 times per year to control weeds and brush as well as put nitrogen back into the ground. We mow about 60 acres in total.

Hi Ken, have not heard from you for some time. How is the barn restoration project going? Any new video of the barn?

Hi Paddy - Barn project is slow right now. My son's timber frame restoration business is very busy. We're staying very active on the farm with property work. Fields, pastured raised pork, turkey and chicken. We will get the barn done and when we start again I'll be posting.

Nice video! I really like those pinwheel rakes. Nice and quiet. Thanks for posting.
