Hoard's Dairyman Blog - Favorite Things

This is my latest post for the Hoard’s Dairyman Blog – HD Notebook Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. How easily some of the classic song lyrics can work their way into our minds. Almost to the point where the lyrics lose their meaning . . . almost like the little everyday things that […]

My Favorite Day of Spring

My favorite day of Spring is when we let the cows back out to pasture for the first time! Hands down, absolute, nothing compares to this day. Last year we were out so early that this year’s usual April let out seemed SO late. But we have had such a wet winter and spring that […]

Hoard's Dairyman Blog - Farming in Pajamas

This is my latest post for the Hoard’s Dairyman Blog – HD Notebook I think we can all agree that dairy farming goes beyond being just an occupation. It’s a lifestyle choice that trickles all the way down to the tiny details that are just unique and normal to this way of life. When we […]

Always the real reel here. Feels hard to compete w Always the real reel here. Feels hard to compete with ai when the real reel is often not picture perfect. But that’s life with all its messy bits and pieces. So it will always be my real words here and the Ladies of this messy beautiful life.
This right here, the beautiful things. That’s why This right here, the beautiful things. That’s why we’ve fought so hard to hold onto this way of life. I truly wish it didn’t have to be so hard. Farmers aren’t in this way of life to get rich, but we certainly hate struggling even to make ends come close to meeting for our families. Not going to lie I’ve held onto to some guilt that we had a way out and can see a future for our farm again. So many wonderful farm families don’t have that choice. Breathing in the beautiful, letting go of the past and looking forward to bringing you more of our farm story in this crazy world of social media.
I’ve been quiet in this space. Mostly cause I coul I’ve been quiet in this space. Mostly cause I couldn’t find the words to describe the literal disaster strong holding dairy farm families in the Pacific Northwest. It’s gut wrenchingly heartbreaking. We went through the tough conversations of how we survive as a dairy farm. Because this right here, these generations of dedication to a breed and land. We couldn’t let go of. Dairy farming is in my blood, heart and soul and there were no answers of what else to do. So we made a choice and are now 10 months into being a certified organic farm and selling our milk to @organicvalley As a small family farm we finally feel like our farm has a chance at real future again.
When you’ve had the warmest January ever on record When you’ve had the warmest January ever on record and the grass starts growing…you turn the milk cows out to pasture! Looking like this dry spell should hold and they’ll get to enjoy some days on grass in the sunshine. Now we just wait to see if Winter ever does decide to show up!
