June has brought some very fine and dry weather and this makes life a lot easier on the farm. The sheep were shorn at the end of May - this is very important to get this done as the lambs will do better when the ewes have been shorn.
All the silage has now been made and stored ready for the cattle to eat in the winter when they are indoors - we couldn’t have had a better start to the summer as far as grass growth is concerned.
June also saw the start of the new season lamb - they are selling extremely fast with some very positive feedback. So if you wish to order any make sure you get in fast.
Next job on the farm is haymaking which we need a very hot and dry spell for so fingers crossed the weather wont be like the last two years in July.
