We have had amazingly mild temps this month. I know a lot of farmers want the heat to mature their crop, but I have to say, I love having the windows open! I love being able to work in the field and not be drenched in sweat in the first 5 minutes. I know, I’m a wuss! This weather also gets us fired up for fall! Here is how the sweet little ladies are growing in the field.
