Planting Hay

My boys planting this year's hay.
Ed's out planting the open field today in wheat and oat seed for horse and rabbit hay.  Hasn't been much rain this season, but we are hoping it arrives now that we have the crop planted!

Straight rows with the beds furrowed up (60 inch spacing) allow us to irrigate when we don't get enough rain.  In Vernalis we usually only see 8 inches of rain per year.
