We had some pretty hot conditions in August, but the cattle seem to be adjusting quite well.  There’s a nice breeze through the pasture, and shade in the afternoon.  We keep an eye on the water trough so it’s always full and check on them every day.  We understand now how it feels to care for the animals- after all, they depend on us.  The better we care for them, the better the end result.

We contacted May Anderson, Grazing Specialist for River Country RC&D who we’ve known since we started planning this adventure, and she is anxious to see the cows and go over our grazing plans.  She has lots of information and ideas to help us get started on the right hoof!
