New wintering ground

We finished fencing some additional acreage this Fall, which included just over acre of thick trees that were getting choked out by ivy.

We moved the older cows down to the trees for the winter and they have done an amazing job of cleaning it up.  They love ivy... who knew?

Lots of small trees and old limbs still left to clean up, but it's looking so much better.  Our hope was to save the few large pines, which aren't common in our area, and the old firs.

My grandparents bought this property in the 50's, and my dad remembers this treed area from his youth.

The cows love their clover pellets to help supplement with their hay for the winter.
